Quick Answer. According to the University of Washington, cows sleep for approximately 3.9 hours per day, meaning that they spend about 16.9 percent of the day sleeping. Adult humans sleep for approximately 8 hours per day, which represents 33.3 percent of the day. Human infants sleep approximately 16 hours per day.
After the first heat, about 25 to 30% of cows have a short cycle. A normal cycle lasts 19 to 23 days in beef cattle. However, short cycles last only 12 to 15 days. During short cycles progesterone, the hormone that supports pregnancy, does not stay elevated for enough days to allow implantation to occur. In 70 to 80% of beef cows, there is a brief (2 to 8 day) increase in progesterone that occurs before the first heat (Figure 1).
