[QUOTE="CattleMan1920, post: 1587836, member: 37967"] Two nights ago we bred this young cow to SAV America 8018. [image]340[/image] Video: http://bit.ly/2FR22yr The heat was not easy to detect visually, just a little bit of sniffing. Here is what the Moo Monitor was showing us, which helped greatly in our decision to breed her. [image]339[/image] The temps were high that day, cattle were barely moving, all of them under the trees until evening came around. I spoke with our vet when I was picking up a bottle of GnRH and he told me that breeding in summer is very hard to do, the heats are tough to spot and the likelihood of it sticking was low. While I agree with him overall, we still have been able to successfully settle them and have a healthy calf on down the road. Hence the reason for going ahead with things. Not sure if we got her, will know when we Biopryn test her in 28 days. Would like to hear others input on breeding in hot summer months, successes, failures, general opinion. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
