[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 249801, member: 2095"] I agree with DOC. I would simplify things.... 1)Provide good nutrition and a good vaccination program, 2) AI the cow, 3) follow up with another AI service if she comes back into heat 20 days later, 4) 20 days after that turn a bull loose with the cows. Pull him after 45 days. If you don't want to have to do DNA testing to figure out parentage use a Black ANgus cleanup bull on Herf cows or a Herf bull on solid cows. 5) Preg check all the cows at weaning time and any cow that is NOT bred after an AI service or two and 45 days with a bull is a CULL. It doesn't really matter whether she is a $370 Longhorn cross commercial cow or a $20,000 Online daughter because if she won't cycle and/or maintain a healthy pregnancy then she isn't worth what you paid for her and is probably not genetics you want to be multiplying anyway.
