I believe the Pregscan ultrasound is worth having

[QUOTE="kjonesel, post: 1321507, member: 16842"] I had been thinking about getting an ultrasound for several years but couldn't pull the trigger and just buy one. My wife and son bought the Pregscan for my Christmas gift and I have used it on about 15 head so far. I pretty much AI everything except I had a bull run with 7 cows for a short while last summer. When I weaned I was able to check on a couple of cows that if they were open were going to the market. I was able to do it at my convenience which allowed me to get it done. This afternoon I had a cow that was 22 days since her last breeding and showed slight signs of being in heat. I wasn't going to breed her because of when she would be due but decided to ultrasound her. After just a minute I showed a confirmed pregnancy. Just that gave me piece of mind and will keep me from having to watch her for heat on the next cycle. Currently I'm running 45 breeding age females and it would be impossible to cost flow but I now consider it a piece of equipment on the same level as a set of calf pullers. Something that if you have it you will use it. [/QUOTE]
