Implanted heifers

[piedmontese]

Are implanted heifers less likely to breed?

Implanted with what product, at what age? Most time people think yes.

Ralgro 2 mo. She was in with a group of Older calves and wasn't supposed to get implanted.

Believe I read in the ralgro literature that it could be safely used on young heifers. Of course it was their literature. Other mileage may vary.

Yes I agree, at 2 months it should not be an issue.

How old were the heifers when they were implanted and how many times?

I was always taught that heifers could be implanted once if at a young age, without any reproductive issues. Personally, I don't, but I used to Ralgro steers.
