[QUOTE="Willow Springs, post: 618618, member: 9002"] You'll just have to let nature take it's course. Maybe she got bred the next cycle, and isn't due until Jan 31st or so. Vets are not perfect; a few years ago we bought a cow in the middle of December that was 8 months in calf; she didn't calve until the middle of April. This past year we had a cow go 306 days gestation; no doubt about it because we had AI'ed her and then cleaned here up with a different breed bull. We also had some cows calve at 172 days gestation last year. Can be pretty variable. If she is content I wouldn't call the vet. Does she have any discharge? As long as it is clear things are fine, if it is getting darker there could be a problem. I had a cow last year that passed her due date. She bagged up but not nearly as much as she nearly did so I just figured she didn't catch on the date I thought. I did have a bad deefing about it, but let her go. She seemed fine, chewing her cud and eating. By the time I really though something was wrong, it was too late; she had a dead calf in her, and she died. [/QUOTE]
