[QUOTE="cowvet, post: 385998, member: 5975"] Here is a link to the drug companys official website. It clearly states that when uterine involution is normal a CIDR can be used 21 days after calving !!! (I didn't just dream it up!). I am a cattle veterinarian in a pastoral based dairy area. We calve every 12 months to fit in with pasture growth etc - because of this some of the later calvers are treated "aggressively" to get them cycling and pregnant again so that they can get pregnant rather than be culled as empties (economics of carrying them over as empties for a year is often questionable). When getting non-cyclers in for treatment we have a 21 day post calving recommendation - they must be at least this before we look at them for a CIDR. If they feel OK on palpation they get treated! The synch programs they have illustrated are also useful to keep in your fliing cabinet for reference. I would recommend using these before I went off some third hand instruction via other farmers etc....
