[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1153395, member: 20599"] We had 3 heifers AI'd last Oct., on timed heats (co-synch with CIDR). One took on the first AI and gave birth last week. The second one took on the second AI and is due in 3 wks (caveat: she was very stressed with partial blindness due to pinkeye at time of first AI). The third one tested open despite 3 AI cycles. She is a nice registered animal and got a temp reprieve to go visit a friend's bull for a couple months. If she tests open this fall, she's done. So, that's 6 AI cycles for 2 heifer pregnancies. Looked at that way, I'm underwhelmed. But for us it still beats a bull...and the mature cows all took on the first try, so our total odds are much better [/QUOTE]
