gestation

What is the gestation of a beef cow in days? I know it's 9 months. The neighbor's Charolais got in Feb.26th. So I know the exact day she got bred. I'm keeping a close eye on her because the last time their bull got in we had to pull the calf. The cow had had 6 calves without a hitch. The cow bred has had 2 calves already.

282 to 289 days depending on the breed. But upto two weeks early or late is also considered normal.
