[QUOTE="Victoria, post: 490458, member: 1258"] We AI a few and then I write down the ones I see with bulls. This year there was a lot of night breeding so I only know about half the herd. We don't really have set times, it depends on who looks like they are going to do something. We keep a record on each cow and on that record are any calving notes. One says "Takes FOREVER. Started walking at 4:00 AM had at 2:00 PM ..." Another "Surprised me, came to hay doing nothing by time I was done feeding had calf...." We'd check those two differently. General rule though is 2-4 hours 24 hours a day depending on the weather. When we see one calving we stay with it. The heifers are in a smaller area behind the house. [/QUOTE]
