[QUOTE="bulldealer, post: 345764, member: 1302"] Bigbull-- Better go back to school, and listen up in animal science class. It is very possible to use the same straw of semen on multiple cows. You do everything just like you are breeding normal AI. All of the cows need to be in one stage of the heat cycle, for instance: COW 1-12 hours into estrus COW 2-12 hours into estrus COW 3-24hours into estrus **COW 3- would have already been bred at least once in this scenerio. Have all of the cows in the chute. Our system has a Y in it, one fork goes to the working chute, and one goes to a clipping chute. Also we have one cow in the alley with a bar behind her. Prepare your AI gun with the straw of semen, be sure and use a sheath protector over the sheath. Pass the rod into COW 1, inject approx. 1/3 of the semen. Move on to COW 2 replace sheath protector and pass rod. Repeat the same steps on COW 3, excect for following with another bull, because she would have already been bred 12 hours prior to this service. You can have someone follow you immediately with another straw of another bull. It is done all of the time in the regidstered business. The calves all have to be parent verified by DNA testing before registration can be done. [/QUOTE]
