We were getting ready to synchronize a group of cows, a few of which I hoped to breed with sexed semen. When we went to gather and sort yesterday about 11AM, I saw one of them was coming in heat. By noon she was standing. I called my AI technician and we bred her early this morning with sexed semen. While doing this I saw another was also standing at about 7:30 AM . I don't know how long she had been standing. I had also hoped to use female sexed semen on her, so my question is:
Do you think we can breed her tonight at about 6:30 with sexed semen?
Wait until early tomorrow and breed with sexed?
Breed with conventional semen tonight?
I know they recommend 18-22 hours after standing heat for sexed semen, but I am not going to ask my 85 year old AI technician to breed at a facility without electricity at 2AM.
What would you do?
