Breeding is only done with cows that have opted into breeding program. This is set by a farmhand via a Farm management terminal.
Bulls and cows both get a breeding bonus when a breeding session is completed.
Breeding limits are 10 per day per cow but this is subject to change.
This was done to prevent the hundreds of breeding bonuses given to a cow in a single day abusing the system.
Breeding success is heavily level dependent.
Chance = 10 + (cow’s breeding attempts today) + bull level
Chance is your percentage of getting the cow pregnant. This means a bull at level 1 has at max a 21% chance of getting a cow impregnated
*****Note: The max natural breeding chance is 85%********
Cow breeding limits are reset with the SL day.
It says I am pregnant but I don't have the bonus?
This normally means you must deliver. Cows that are requiring delivery are not eligible for the pregnant bonus.
Does *Limit* text effect breeding?
Once limit is hit you will not get a bonus from breeding.

Yes. Both the cow and bull will receive breeding bonus. However the cow can not get double pregnant.
