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.
I started mine at 2 years old. As long as the rider does not exceed 20% of the cow's weight it should be fine.
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.

Cows give birth by going into labor and delivering the calf typically from standing position after a gestation period of around 9 months. Assistance from a veterinarian may be needed in some cases. The process should be monitored closely to ensure the safety of the cow and the calf.

About 10 years old but the oldest cow is 20 years old.
It can be a little higher than normal because of the stress she's going through trying to push out that calf.
