[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1848111, member: 25884"] As with any breeding, there is no guarantee... but this gives you a better chance... the only other thing I have done is to breed AI , and if they don't seem to settle, they go with a bull... You could use a bull for 30 days...in by the day they are due to come into the restless/heat time... leave in 30 days to catch a possible 2nd heat.... and if they don't breed. you might be smarter at this point to ship them with what they are worth at the pound price. A bull will keep after them for as long as he can get them to stand for 30 seconds, and put alot more semen in there too.... Give a gnrh when you think he might have bred them if you can just for a little extra boost to release the egg..... And a bull would be less likely to start going looking for a way out from wanting another cow to breed with a short 30 day stay... unless there are cattle on an adjoining fence... [/QUOTE]
