[QUOTE="Chris H, post: 986493, member: 1974"] If he was in good shape they all should have been bred by now. We had a similar issue last season. We had a couple head we wanted bred earlier than the rest of the herd. Put them with the bull, they got bred and didn't return in heat. This was the 2nd season for the bull, so we figured we'd save the money on the bull test. Turned in the rest of the cows and heifers were returning in heat. Called vet, did test, and the bull just barely passed the test. Moved most of the cattle to a different bull, they all got bred 1st service. We left about a dozen with this bull and he got most on 1st service after that. I think you ought to get the heifers preg-checked and then check the bull if the girls are open. [/QUOTE]
