[QUOTE="regolith, post: 845866, member: 9267"] If you think they're going overdue, talk to a vet about your options. It sounds unlikely in first calvers, but there are instances where the calf might not trigger the birthing process. If it's genetics, or nutrition, as Dun says, not a lot you can do at this stage. What breed/cross is producing those weights? As for bringing on birthing - frost, rain, sunshine, mud, storms are all reputed to have an effect. Three of those fall under the rule of nature known as "Sod's Law". [/QUOTE]
