[QUOTE="nocows, post: 1583124, member: 30029"] I have a heifer that appears to be in labor how long should I let this go on before intervention is needed? I knew she has been getting close to calving so I've been keeping an eye on her, this morning I went out to check her before I left for my day job. She was in the corner of the pasture laying down it was obvious that she's been up and down several times you can see where she's matted the ground down doing so. That was about 4 hours ago I had my brother in law run out there to check on her and she's doing the same thing, up and down with her tail out. She will hunch every so often like she's pushing but we never have seen a water bag or anything yet. I know every case and situation is different but how long would you expect a heifer to be in stage 1 of the calving process?
