How long should you keep a bull with a cow?
It's best to keep a bull with a cow until a) the cow has conceived, or b) when she no longer goes back into heat. Usually it's best to leave a bull in with that cow for a couple months so that both her heat periods are covered and she has a higher chance of conceiving. But even then you never know. It's always best to check if she has been bred by getting her preg-checked or have a blood-sample done on her.

Why do farmers check pregnant cows?
Preg-checking is a method done to verify a cow's pregnancy status, or if a cow is bred or not. This is done primarily by rectal palpation, though other "non-invasive" methods of preg-checking are being practiced, such as blood testing, ultra-sound, timing of heats, or bumping. Farmers also check pregnant cows when they are close to calving. This is so that the producer estimates what cows are closest to calving and when they might drop a calf. It will also determine if they are close to calving or not.
