[QUOTE="j&lfarms, post: 1014751, member: 20054"] Alright...well I'm 17 and just starting out with owning my own cattle. My girlfriend and I bought 4 angus heifers in October. Starting in about February I started noticing they were coming in heat (riding each other discharge ect....) They are all around 15 months give or take a month of two. They are all growing well and have went from probably 650 to around 900 pounds just off of hay and the ocasional feed. Here's where my problem comes in. I have one heifer who looks like she swallowed a 50 gallon drum. She is wide on both sides, just recently I noticed her udder is just slightly larger than the other four and her teets look swollen (I could be playing tricks on my mind), and just in the last week or two has had kind of a swollen vuvla that looks like it is kind of oozing. Could she be pregnant? If she is, just based on those symptoms, when do you think she could calve. 9 months from when I bought her would be late June or early July? When I bought them they were just being weaned. They were late weaners because they guy I got them from had been sick. We almost suspected that the guy had waited so long that they had self weaned themselves. [/QUOTE]
