[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 1015499, member: 14661"] Heifers can be hard to sync because their cycles are a lot more variable than a cows and all of our sync programs were designed for cows. Cosync with a cidr will work as the cidr will regulate her cycle to fit the program but I really like to see signs of estrus on synced heifers even if it's just her sniffing at everyone else. About fifteen days after you breed them, slap some estrotech patches on them even if you don't have time to heat detect. If they show up open, just re-enroll them right back into the same protocol as soon as you see that she was in heat, even if it's a few days later, and your success rate should be better as you're working with her natural cycle.
