[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1179385, member: 20599"] Howdy All, We timed-AI'd 11 cows and heifers (mostly angus) on Mon eve Sept. 15. We want to move them to a pasture by the house to watch for heats on the very next cycle (and rebreed any in heat). The "home" pasture only has a few days feed so I was planning to move them this Sat am and watch them closely from Sat-Mon (maybe Tues latest). I know that, technically, estrus cycles are 18-24 days. Does Sat am to Mon night give enough of a window to see any that are coming into heat? (That would be about days 19-21?). I could throw them hay if need be and buy a longer window to keep them nearby but hate to have yet another sacrifice area. Also, on the couple of days before and after they are on the "home pasture" they will be checked on, just not as often. Any advice appreciated. Thanks !!! [/QUOTE]
