The most tell-tale signs are that she is not progressing any after the water sac comes out. Just by looking what is coming out the vulva (or what isn't) can also be a sign that she's having trouble. If the feet are coming out upside-down (or rather, the hooves are pointing up instead of down), if only one foot is coming out, one leg appears to be too far back than the other, if there's no nose poking out between the legs when you check, if there's only a tail visible in the birth canal, or she hasn't progressed after 3 to 6 hours after the water sac emerged, then it's time to either call the vet or get her in the chute and see what's going on.

How long should it take a cow to give birth before she is in trouble?
A cow should ideally give birth within 2-4 hours of the onset of labor. If labor surpasses this timeframe, there could be complications, such as a breach birth or the calf getting stuck, requiring veterinary assistance. It's important to monitor the cow closely during labor to ensure both her and the calf's well-being.
What is the maximum time a cow should be in labor?
There is no set-in-stone time, but you should never let a cow get over 12 hours into labour, especially if she's having trouble even getting the calf out in the first place. If you suspect a cow is having trouble delivering a calf, do not let it get over 2 to 4 hours long, especially if you are capable of being around to keep an eye on her and other cows.

Can a longhorn cow be bred with a charolais bull?
Yes, but you have a very likely chance that the cow will have trouble giving birth. This is because Charolais are notorious for siring large calves, and since Longhorns are known for birthing small birth-weight calves, you could land yourself in a heap of trouble. You could end up loosing the cow for all it's worth. If you want a Charolais-Longhorn mix in your herd, you're better off breeding a Longhorn bull with a Charolais cow. This is because the cow will have much less trouble giving birth than if you breed vice versa.
