I am new to the cattle industry. I had a cow calve last month and I never new that she was due. I have 3 cows due now actually 2 of which is over due. One of them was raped ( as the vet called it) 2 weeks ago and had to have shots in her tale to stop her from straining. I have the three is a small pasture. I have looked at every website there is and they all say the same thing. One of the cows udders look like they are going to burst and she is springing but she will start showing signs then a couple hours will stop. I was told to keep a close eye on here due to the incident. Im not sure what to look for. She has also had 4 days of mucus. The other cow is starting to show signs of early labor (getting up and Down) and mucous but the udders are not as swollen as the other one. When should I call the vet or should I just sit back and wait. I am so afraid to loose one we are really close to the cattle
