Ten months
Angus cows or heifers come into heat every 21 days.
No. Women are not dogs and don't have a heat cycle in addition to periods.
A donkey's heat cycle can vary since no two donkeys are the same. However, the average heat cycle tends to be anywhere between 23 and 30 days.
Cows will show signs of heat cycle (they will bellow, they will mount or stand for mounting), the bull will smell that she is in heat (often the cow will urinate and the bull will smell the urine-this is referred to as the Phleaman response). They will then breed.
They certainly do! Since a cow is a female mature bovine, that makes her able to possess female sex organs such as a vagina, a vulva, uterus, and ovaries in order to conceive and give birth to offspring. Heifers also have a vagina too because they are also female, though their vagina is often a bit of a smaller and younger version than a cow typically is. Freemartins have an even smaller vagina than either a heifer or cow.
The most obvious is that a cow has a gestation period of 285 days or around 9 and a half months. The least obvious is that cows have caruncles on the wall of the uterus to which the placenta attaches to. A cow's estrus period lasts 18 to 24 hours, with the whole estrous cycle lasting 21 days. A cow will come back into heat after having a calf around 20 days after calving, but shouldn't be bred until 45 to 60 to 80-90 days after calving.
no, dogs can only breed while their in heat. they're gestation period is around 2 months
Cows DO NOT menstruate. This is solely a human reproductive physiology characteristic, not a bovine reproductive physiology characteristic. Cows have an Estrous cycling period, NOT Menstrual period. During the Metestrus period, a cow (both cows AND heifers) will show a bit of postestrual bleeding caused by the withdrawal of estrogen 2 to 3 days after the cow or heifer goes out of heat. A portion of the lining over the caruncles in the female bovine's uterus become engorged with blood and bleeding from the smaller capillaries may occur. If you didn't see the female in heat, this (the slight bloody discharge) is evidence that she was in heat a few days earlier.By definition, menstruation is the sloughing of the endometrium in the uterus to the exterior. There is no defined period of sexual receptivity during menstruation, and the timeline for the description of the cycle begins and ends with menses, not ovulation nor estrus. The estrous cycle begins and ends with estrus and/or ovulation; the follicular phase is short and the luteal phase long. The Menstrual cycle begins and ends with the start of menses (sloughing of endometrium). Ovulation occurs in the middle of the cycle. The follicular and luteal phase are the same length.
Estrus in a cow or heifer only lasts for ~24 hours.
Cows do not have periods. But they do show a little bloody discharge a few days after going out of heat. See the related questions below for more info.
No. Once a cow is pregnant she won't have any signs of heat again, until after she gives birth to her calf.
Normal gestation is 284 +/- ten days and cows don't usually come back into heat for 40 to 90 days post calving.
