[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 228609, member: 852"] Oh, you can tell cows that are under 3 months bred. Shucks, the only time for fetal sexing is 60-90 days of gestation via ultrasound. Calf is too big after that. Maybe your vet can't tell ;-) but there are folks out there who can. My vet can tell on the ultrasound at 24 days, and I watched him checking a 28 day-bred heifer once and saying he was pretty sure he could feel that fetus, and if she turned up open he'd be really surprised. He won't confirm anything under 32 days though! I'm working on learning too. I have a few out here I ought to sleeve up and have a feel, just for practice. I have 'em heavy bred, short bred, open, cycling and not cycling...I can teach myself. :) Vet's given me a few lessons and what I really need is just experience. All's going well with me and mine, hope things are good there too Double R. ;-) [/QUOTE]
