It is best to breed her in between May to April to expect her to calve in February. Remember the gestation period of a cow is not exactly 9 months long like in a human female, but rather a couple weeks longer. It also depends on the breed of the cow, because some breeds tend to be pregnant longer than others.
between 40 and 60 you should let her have a heat to clean out some then breed her the second heat
Any cow can have a calf per year, usually cows will be able to breed and produce calves until they are 7-10 years of age.
for example if you have a cow that produces lots of milk, you would select that cow to breed so its calves would produce a lot of milk when they grow up
The cow.
A cow is a mature female bovine that has already had at least two calves. A bull is a male bovine that is used to breed cows. Therefore, a bull mates with a cow to produce a calf that has a 50% chance of growing into a cow or a bull.
there are many animals that their young are called calves. there are camel calves, cow calves, and i think orca whale babies are called calves. not sure about the last one. =)
A cow can have anywhere from one to 20 calves in her lifetime, depending on how productive she is and how long she is able to stay in the herd to produce those calves. On average, a cow will produce eight calves in her lifetime. Cows that are used for embryo transfer can produce up to twice as many calves in her life time than she can by her own doing. The record number of calves a cow has had in her lifetime is 39.
After it calves
Yes, but you may end up with that Jersey cow having problems giving birth to a large calf. Holsteins are not really known for giving small calves like Jerseys are, so either consider breeding a Jersey bull to a Holstein cow, or don't breed your Jersey cow to a Holstein bull at all.
The question is a bit ambiguous and rhetorical: a bull is most definitely not a cow. A bull is an intact male bovine, often mature, that is used to breed cows and heifers for the propose of producing offspring, being calves.
The current record is 39 calves.
