[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1581421, member: 27490"] It can certainly work in an all AI program. My calving season is September/October. My breeding season is December/January. So my cows have an average of 60 days postpartum for the uterus to recover and start recycling. My observation is that most cows start recycling in the first 30 days postpartum. Some pregnancies will slip out of your window. Just the nature of the beast. For example, I had one this year that was bred and carried a pregnancy for 60 days and then lost her pregnancy. I bred her back and she will calve on December 26. Not what I want. But over the past 4 years , I have kept the entire herd in this window doing 100 % AI. I don't have a breeding bull on the farm. It sure cuts down on that effort but a total AI program takes a commitment. [/QUOTE]
