[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 498965, member: 6897"] Everything in the above posts is good information. I can palpate a cow as good as any vet but have never been able to AI. so my wife does it. Take a lot of practice and women seem to have "the touch". Timing is everything so we spend a lot of time watching the cows. The young bull calves work well as "spotter bulls". Don't know why they say "two straws per cow" . My wife has even split straws and bred two cows with one straw of semen but I have to give her credit "she's awfully good" and has been offered big money to just breed cows for a large dairy operation. You can go to AI school but you won't be worth a nickel til all of a sudden one day that light comes on and you realize that you can do it. :banana: :banana: Until then just hope and pray. [/QUOTE]
