Yeah, timed AI.
I was yacking with the vet today about the same subject. The problem is you have to be able to monitor the exact time of ovulation to really do the study about it correctly. I think that's probably the one fly in the ointment that would preclude doing a study accurately.pdfangus":2b2k78r1 said:LOGIC tells me that if it was as easy as time of breeding, some of the greatest bovine reproduction minds in the world would have figured it out years ago. People have been discussing sexed semen ever since I started AI breeding in 1975. so it has gotten a good bit of scrutiny over the years.
If it is working for you go ahead and use what is working.
Actually I don't think I am smart enough to know which cows I need heifers from and which bulls.
some of my better cows over the years have come from cows and calves that were in the middle of my herd rather than the top end. that is 30 plus years of observation.
When I started stacking my good cows by using performance tested sons of my good proven cows on other good proven cows. the environment adaptability kicked in and we surged in performance.

No, since Paunchos calf wasn;t part of the Sync timed AI dealMistyMorning":fzgmlus2 said:dun":fzgmlus2 said:Anyway, Bulls to Heifers is now 7 to 2, another heifer this afternoon
Isn't 6-2, are you counting Pauncho's?
Hooray, I think I've figured out how to beat the bull domination. Just say I'll wager it's another bull and I'll get a heifer. It worked with this one anywaydun":9vbj5j0x said:Add one more to the bull count. Another cow is starting now and I'll just wager it's a bull too
