[QUOTE="rogergreaves, post: 1172167, member: 22540"] I'm aware of the odds. I should have had a cleanup bull. I was told to have a cleanup bull. My deal fell through and I didn't seek a second deal. That is on me. I also had a pasture lease deal blow up on me at the same time so I got overwhelmed. Still my fault. No Cidrs. They had been lactating for about 80 days by breeding day. The Vet's protocol was: gnrh, seven days later: lut, wait for signs of heat then call. Was expecting signs on Monday eve or Tuesday morning. Never saw any but unless there's a Lesbian orgy going on, I might miss it, green like I am. Called his office Wednesday to ask what I should do and he showed up Wednesday eve and went to work. He hit them and gave them a shot of gnrh. We started with an AI tech. We sent her emails four months in advance asking what we should buy in terms of equip. We have a sweep, alley and chute, we were needing to know about Cidrs, semen and drugs and how to get them. She never responded to several emails or phone calls after that and never answered those questions until we had moved on to this Vet. A month prior to our projected breeding date, she contacted us and wanted to make appointments. We had semen already on the way to the vet and drugs in the fridge by that point. This is North Idaho SOP in every industry. Come here and be a conscientious professional and I suspect you will retire early and well. [/QUOTE]
