[QUOTE="novaman, post: 647434, member: 2744"] Exactly. Just thought I would mention it. The problems come with cows that don't show a strong heat. Sometimes they are scratched down the center but the sides aren't rubbed off. Takes some observation and a bit of judgement from time to time. A majority of the time the entire patch is either rubbed off to the color or is completely gone. I've found that if either of those scenarios takes place the cow should be ready to be AIed. The aids are nice and can help to reinforce a hunch. However, if you yourself are lacking proper heat detection skills or time, aids will not bail you out. [/QUOTE]
