The biggest concern for a first-time birth is if the cow can actually have the calf unassited. It's best if you can keep her restrained to an to a small area or a pen where she can be frequently monitored when you think she is close to having the calf. When she actually goes in to labor, watch carefully to see if she needs help, and call a vet if needed. If the birth is successful, make sure the calf is able to nurse her and is healthy before letting them out.

How long from giving birth to the first puppy to the last puppy?

There is normally no more than half an hour between each puppy. Quite often less than this. WIth a mother normally never giving birth to more than 12 puppies, so six hours or so would be the maximum time but in most cases it would be quicker than this.


How soon does a rabbit build her nest before giving birth?

When my rabbit was pregnant, we didn't even know that she was pregnant. When we found out she had given birth, which was some minutes after she gave birth, she was in the middle of constructing her nest. So my guess is, they build their nests a little while before or immediately after giving birth.

How long should it take a cow to become pregnant again after giving birth and running continuously with bull?

There are just too many factors at play here. First off, why is she being run continuously with the bull? Ideally the bull should be separated from the cow except during the time she needs to be bred or is ready to be bred. She should be bred 45 to 60 days after giving birth, a couple weeks later to time her cycles so that she calves around the same date. But if she's being run with the bull continuously she could have been bred much too soon after birth, like 20 to 30 days after giving birth, which is too soon because it doesn't give her the time to rest and allow her uterus to "involute" or return to its normal shape before conception. So if I were you, unless there's a good reason that the bull should be kept with the cow 24/7/365, consider separating them for the reasons stated above.

Is it true that women have a month period after giving birth?

After giving birth, the uterus constricts and begins to return to it's pre-pregnant state. The lining of the uterus is shed in the form of Lochia. This postpartum bleeding or Lochia occurs after every birth. The length of time a woman bleeds for, and how heavy it is, varies. It is heavy the first few days, with lots of clots, but usually after the first week it is quite light.
