[QUOTE="1848, post: 69987, member: 1303"] Choose the cow you are going to flush (should be one of your best and should also be 60 days past calving) Then choose, and make an appointment with the veteranarian who will be doing the flush, then get your cow on a schedule to coincide with the flush date. Give the cow the recommended injections to cause her to superovulate, then AI her to the bull of choice. Once so many days have passed (for fetilization of the eggs in the cow) she will be flushed. Some breeders will use Cidr's so they will know when the heat cycle will occur, and know the optimum time to AI her. It is a "min" of $200+ depending on how the flush goes. Always try to take an open cow who has just finished her heat with you so you can have the vet make use of any #2 grade eggs while you are there. The only thing left is pick recipient cows (cross or registered, but most will not waste their purbreds for recipts). They should be at least 60 days past calving. Set them up to come into heat and have the egg implanted...simple...:) [/QUOTE]
