[QUOTE="diana55, post: 1339154, member: 12968"] I only AI my own and started doing so in 2003. Usually AI on natural standing heats so it is a bit spread out.Last week did 8 in one day as they were sync'ed and last year had 12 in one day ( 5 were donors so were done twice each). If my arthritis isn't playing up ( yep, Im a senior citizen...) I'm fine, otherwise a couple a day is enough. I have an ET technician to flush and implant but I do everything else. We use our own Angus cows as recips. Sometimes I think I have magic fingers and other times I want to slit my wrists. My husband refers to me as "the bull in a bra". Good sense of humour, we Aussies. He is the official tail holder! Most years I would AI from 20 to 30 cows and heifers, may do more this year as some new bulls I want to try. Also use a few of our home bred bulls natural service so I can see how our breeding program is working. I don't palpate as we have a very good ultrasound technician who is extremely accurate in gauging number weeks pregnant. [/QUOTE]
