I'm not sure how to ask this question. I have 9 second calf heifers due to calf. The one to calf 1st, last year in January appeared to be passing her mucus plug the second week in January this year and still no calf. The others have since passed their plugs and still no calves from any of them. How long can it take from the time they pass their plugs until they calf? I have had one take as long as a month before but all of them seem to be doing this. It has been almost 2 week since the last one passed her plug. Could it be a vitamin or mineral problem or something else? They all calved unassisted last year without any problems and raised very healthy calves and seemed to breed back on time. Brangus cows bred to same beefmaster bull as last year.
