[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1181312, member: 20599"] Thanks Farmgirl and Fire Sweep! Caught another heifer (call her "A") in heat this am and will AI her this eve. (Of course, the ones that didn't take the first time are spreading it all out!) This afternoon I'm seeing the 2 steers climbing all over "A", and now another one (call her "B") is hanging close to the harem and acting like maybe she's headed into heat too (but not standing). I've been a fan of timed AI so far, but I can see that if our herd grew a lot, it might make sense to do timed AI, then turn a good bull in 18 days later and leave him even 10 days. That, or learn to do the AI myself....I've looked at classes but they're far away and usually not cost-effective for a small herd. [/QUOTE]
