[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1675545, member: 498"] When I was doing the bred heifer deal I synced and AI all of them. That cost $50 a head. The CIDR was $10, the drugs $10, semen $20, and the tech was $10. Plus some here figure their time. Well that was 3 times down the chute for 60 head. Two of those times it was me by myself to insert the CIDR's and pull them.. For cows I had a good source of bulls for about $2000. I would breed two seasons and ship them. Only fed for one winter and got a good portion of my money back when the bull went to town. 25 cows per bull for 2 years so 50 breedings. $393.75 for winter feed and pasture. $2000 + 393.75 = $2,393.75 Minus the $1,200 salvage for the bull. Cost $1,193.75 for 50 breedings or $23.87 per cow. [/QUOTE]
