[QUOTE="anewcomer, post: 1810304, member: 18748"] Ebenezer, this is what I was talking about in my earlier post. This technique of teasing is/was common in smaller mammals like sheep and goats, but not cattle. A herd that runs with bulls year round would have this bio-stimulation effect from the day each cow calves. Herds with a defined breeding season would only have bulls in 85 days after the start of calving season. Only cows calving 85 or more days after the original start of calving season would be effected at all. Vasectomized bulls or testosterone treated cows would need to be used in defined breeding herds to use this effect. [/QUOTE]
