[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 11485"] A good rule of thumb for fetus size and calving date is mouse-rat-cat to 30-60-90. That is to say if the fetus is 30 days old it is the size of the mouse and so on and so forth. By your heifer's fetus being the size of a large cat i would estimate she is about 100 days bred or so, and you can do the math to figure out an APPROXIMATE calving date. Just remember this is not an exact science just a general rule of thumb. [email=prichardson@wvca.us]prichardson@wvca.us[/email] [/QUOTE]
