Had to give the vet a bad time today.

Our stragler calving he called due 4/12, she didn;t calve till this morning 4/13.

Maybe he needs to check that dam giraffe on facebook

You mean the one that has been going to calve since February?

Yes, that's the one , I can't believe people sit and watch that cam.

I'm impressed he threw out a date as opposed to "probably 4-6 months", etc. Is this the same vet the palped your Granny? If so, his game has improved

Same one. He's usually within a week one side or the other. That deal with Granny was a fluke, that's why I keep harassing him about it. When he palps he will give number of days bred then I calculate back to what that date is and add the gestation length to it to come up with due dates.

I know he'd probably miss the due date on a lot of my cows that like going 295-300 days gestation.. I'm patiently (ok, not so much) waiting for one now at 292..

Sounds like someone missed the breeding date, and lots of people have too much free time. :lol2: Heck, I'll let people pay to get text updates when my cows calve like they were doing for that darn giraffe. Might be a way to pick up some income with the markets being off... :lol2: :deadhorse:
