[QUOTE="lithuanian farmer, post: 1605895, member: 19683"] Gestation came from the heifer herself. We had two bull calves born from the same sire last year, 283 and 288days gestation. Both dams were sired by our first Limousine bull. This heifer is sired by the second Limousine bull we'd. That bull's calves are born at over 290days most of the time. At the moment have only two his daughters calved, this at 299days gestation and another at 295days... Good thing is that they seem to have more room inside, but I don't like such long gestations... Time will tell if we'll keep his daughters. I'm happy with just one calf, especially when the winter is near. It'd be a struggle for the cow to raise two calves until spring. No,unfortunately the other calf was a bull calf, but I still plan to do a reproductive system check for this heifer when she'll be an yearling or so. [/QUOTE]
