Preg Testing Info

[JeffK-MN]

Hi my brother bought 3 bred cows last winter. They were pregnancy tested to calf in may.
But it is the middle of June. The cows are getting close but I would like to know if doing a preg test is always this far off?
I also want to learn how to do it myself.
Any help is appreciated Thanks Jeff

A vet or anyone can be within days or off as much as a couple months. Some are just better than others.
Makes it hard to plan ahead when they are a couple months off though.

Are the cattle beginning to show any signs?? Bagging or getting loose and floppy in the rear end??

Yes 2 are bagging up some and all 3 are getting lose on the rear end.
The one that has very little bagging is a heifer and she is a charlais the others are black angus.
Thanks for any help Jeff
