Frequently Asked Questions
How long is a cow pregnancy?
A cow pregnancy averages 283 days, with a typical range of 279 to 287 days.
Why does calf size and cow age affect the calving date?
Older and larger cows tend to calve around 10 days later than average, while smaller and younger cattle often calve around 10 days earlier, reflecting real biological variation beyond the stated range.
What is the postpartum interval?
The postpartum interval is the recovery period after calving before a cow is physiologically ready to conceive again, typically around 55 days for a cow that has calved before and slightly longer, around 65 days, for a first-time calver.
