[QUOTE="Putangitangi, post: 1063753, member: 5956"] What does your gestation table work on? 283 days? The genetics of the calf being from both parents, of course the bull will influence gestation of the calf. My understanding is that the calf produces a "I'm finished" hormonal signal which prompts labor. I'm having some longer-than-expected gestations in my heifers from a short-gestation EBV bull right now (he's -5.7 days) ... still waiting on calves I thought might be born five days ago, bearing in mind their own gestations and the bull's EBV.
