[QUOTE="cowgirl_jenna, post: 1071256, member: 20102"] I agree with cow pollinator, if you have dairy cows that you are around everyday most of the day watching for natural heats might work great. At the dairy we use tail chalk and it works great. With our beef, we do some heat detectors and it works good. But, groups that are on pasture we will sync, just because we cant watch them and bring them in at many different times, they are synched once and sent back out with the clean up bulls. With that said, I do like ai'ing on natural heats, just seems things are more "toned up", and is easier, but of course this is not true every time. Also, I like the time we spend with the herd watching for heats, we notice a lot of things we probably would miss otherwise. I think it really depends on your situation mostly and labor/facilities available. [/QUOTE]
