I was just curious about something. I know cows can slip eggs mainly in the first 90 days of pregnacy and even up to they calve, but I was wondering if the slipping of eggs happens the most in the first 18-24 days? We put some eggs in and theyre 24 days now and no sign of the cow clipping them and we are getting excited and we were wondering if we had made it over the first hurdle (we know we have a good ways to go in the race)

Would think you need to watch at 14 days or so,  the eggs were put in about 7 days after heat so that is the first hurdle.  Then again around day 35 after putting them in,  the second heat window.  Make those two and I'd be pretty confident.

yep we just passed the 14 day one, so hopefully it looks this way for about 270 more days  <beer>
