For you all that breed and then pull the bull and then palpate , year in and year out what percentage do you figure are open each year? I have heard a 85% breeding rate is about the average.
This year we had 10% open most years it less then 1%
Dun
is this on spring calvers what is your breeding dates what do you attribute this too
Last yr I ran right at 96.5% bred and I figure that a bit too low most yrs I run 98%or better
this is on fall calvers breeding season is from Nov. 10th to January 15th my small bunch (20)of spring calvers all got bred in the first 30 days
Hope I do better this yr but am worried because I had 4 bulls that went thru 3 fences to get together about 5 days after I turned them out and the got pretty banged up and were limping around for the first week to 10 days
so I am keeping my fingers crossed that they got atleast a few bred during that time
still have one limping on a front leg but I have seen him breeding a couple of times or atleast going thru the motions :lol2:
