[QUOTE="Alan, post: 518046, member: 378"] I have a Hereford cow that I AI'd last june, her due date was 3/16. After I AI'd the cows I waited 21 days and turned a clean up bull out with the herd. If she calves today is she 9 days late or 12 days early? (assuming she was bred by the clean up bull right away, or even a couple days later. I called the AHA to see how they verify parentage on AI calves..... they don't. You can do a DNA test but it's not required. I wonder how many Felton 517 cattle may not be 517 (just picked a popular bull, not picking on 517, could be Online, M326,20X). I would think owners of the $100,000+ bulls would want to protect there reputition better. Just my rant this morning, I think the system could be much better. How does the Angus Association handle this? Alan [/QUOTE]
