I have a BMC gyp that was about 6 months old they said she hasn't been in heat with him and she was not fixed well she's right at 13 months now and still hasn't come in , I check her everyday I go feed , is this normal or is it a good hit that she might be fixed . How could I tell if she's fixed with out taking her to the vet ?!

It's rare but I have seen some gyps not come in the first time until around 18 months old. If she has been spayed then she should have a scar on her stomach around the navel area. If you are using pour on cattle wormer to worm her then that could be affecting her heat cycle. Are you wanting to breed a 13 month old gyp or are you just trying to catch her before she gets accidentally bred ?

Some go thru whats called a "silent heat" where they dont swell or bleed or anything, may be her case.  Also, just like women, their body condition can affect a *heat.  Either poor body condition/nutrition (not sayin yours is poor!!!), or extremely fit and athletic body condition can make them have not real normal cycles, so, theres another few things for ya.
