[QUOTE="Putangitangi, post: 1057412, member: 5956"] If you keep reliable records for your herd, what's your average gestation and range? Mine are Angus (breeding up from a mixed bag of dairy-cross and some pure-bred) and they average 278.9 for heifers and 280.3 for bulls. Longest is 290 days (7 times), shortest 268 (three times). That's on 570 known gestations over 17 years. I do both AI and very close observation at mating time. I like to know when they'll calve (within a day or so) and find the data fascinating. [/QUOTE]
