[QUOTE="TR, post: 153590, member: 22"] She was cycling last year when I took her out to be bred, and I actually watched the bull breed her July 17th. She should have calved from that breeding in April, but didn't calve until August, so I figured she either took and re-absorbed the fetus, (something I've heard heifers sometimes do) or didn't settle until November (bad news). Last night, she was bawling at nothing (her calf was right beside her), so I figured she was coming in. I haven't noticed any of the others riding her, and there are two out here right now in standing heat being ridden. In all honesty, I've been out of the country for 3 weeks, but I don't think she had been cycling before then. She had a really big calf though, and it was her first so I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt. If she doesn't settle AI, then I'll run her with my herf bull and see how she does with him. I just wanted a different bull for her as her calf is a pretty good 'un by a dink of a bull, so I can only imagine what she would do with a good bull on her.....IF she breeds....I'm holding my breath on this one....
