[QUOTE="Highlandheath, post: 1434522, member: 28522"] Well first attempt on our two Highlands is a fail. Blood test back today, hard open. Our cows act like they have never seen a chute before and we stressed them out big time getting them to move through. I am wondering how much that stress hurt us? I believe that our biggest problem was heat detection. At 66 hrs our dominate cow was standing to let the very submissive one smell her. She was also showing a lot of interest in her urine. We have never seen the submissive one mount the dominate one, so I figured this may be the only sign I get with her and Ai'd. The submissive one never showed a sign of heat, but the protocol called for AI at 72 hrs. Protocol was: GnRH - 7days CIDR - PG - heat detect and AI at 72 hrs with GnRH Any feed back for the deflated rookies? It's really hot here now. Should we wait for cooler weather to try again? Thanks for your patience with us, and all your help. [/QUOTE]
