Howdy,
Our AI tech is recommending we slightly revise our synch protocol, to add a second lute shot. it goes this like:
Day 0: insert CIDR and administer GnRH
Day 5: Remove CIDR and administer lute
Day 6 (24 hrs later): re-Lute
Day 8 (40 hrs later): AI and administer GnRh.
Day 9: as an optional step, re-AI and GnRH.
This is a WHOLE lotta work, but we are only doing a few cows this cycle. He says the success rates are proving to be quite high for this. After going 1 for 5 last time, I am willing to do this, even spring for the extra day AI, if it will get me a bit closer to doing a happy dance on preg check day.
Comments? Any experience or indirect feedback on this?
Thanks!
