I have 3 longhorn heifers bred (accidentally to a Longhorn "steer"). Anyway, their bellies are huge and they are getting a little bit of a bag. My friend says it is close when they start "springing"? I don't know what that means. I don't know how to tell when they are close to calving. I worry about them constantly although my friend told me that longhorns shouldn't have any problems. They are a couple of years old. We bought them for roping cattle and weren't expecting to have babies.
Any wisdom share?
Thanks!
