[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 8712"] I would seriously doubt that the discharge that you saw would be he semen that you deposited the day before as that amount of semen is a very small amount of liquid and not usually the same color as bull semen or pus. What comes to mind right away is the possibilty that a bull bred her inbetween your breedings. Is that a possibility? Either a neighbors bull or a bull calve that is big enough to reach her and deposit semen. On a few occasions I have caught a cow in heat in the evening and returned to see a neighbors bull had got in the pasture during the night and when I went in to her and tried to draw mucous out to see if there was evidence of her being bred--I would find a whiteish bull semen mixed with the mucous indicating that the bull had indeed done so. In this case, I just waited a week and gave her a shot of lutayse.<p>While it is possibly to have an infection in a heifer, infections would occur mostly in cows that have had a calve before. That discharge would be a little more creamy in color(pus colored) than what bull semen looks like and if she had an infection than she should be treated by infusing her.
