Hello, I'm new to this board so please bear with me if this question is not in the right place. We raise registered Angus, but AI'd two of our cows to a Maine cross. Both of these cows are overdue (one by 1 week, the other by almost 2). I've palped them both and the calves have turned and both moms are bagging up etc. Do Maines have a longer gestational period than Angus? Should I be thinking about inducing labor? Any help would be appreciated. I've not been able to find any info re:variations in breed gestational periods anywhere on the Net. Thanks in advance!
