Steer Planet - Show Steers and Club Calves Forum

I have a cow due to calve anytime, she has loosened in the back end and has had a mucus discharge. Is there any basic guidelines as to how far from calving she might be? It is supposed to be very cold tonight and the next few days and I did not know if I should put her in the barn or not worry yet.

if it was me and she is at her due date,whats its going to hurt to put are in the barn,especially if its bitter cold out and my luck thats when they calve,snowstorms or the occasional thunderstorm we have out here.rusty

Thanks for all of the comments. Luckily the worst of the weather passed by yesterday and she had the calf this morning. It was still cold to get out in for my liking but not too much danger for the calf. Again thank you for your help.

Calf was finally born. Bull calf, pretty small but up and eating quite a bit already.
