2/B or not 2/B

In a few weeks, we'll be AI'ing for the first time. Gonna use our herd bull as clean up. Wasn't gonna say anything just yet. You know, not wanting to jinx it or count our eggs before they're hatched and all. I don't have anyone else who understands why this would be even remotely exciting though, and I'm nervous! The tech is certified but has only been practicing since March so I don't know what to expect. He's sending us the drugs and CIDR's this week and I'm having the semen shipped to him to hold in his tank. It's timed AI and we're only doing 5 head. 60% would be 3 and I'd be thrilled. More than 3 and I'd be ecstatic. If we get something dismal like 2 or worse, I'll be :cry2: . Going with 3 Brown Vacation, 1 Saskvalley Bonanza and 1 DR World Class. I know I probably should have stuck with just one bull or at least one breed but I couldn't help it! Finally getting to shop for AI sires was like being a kid in a candy store. They weren't all my first choices, but to save on shipping we needed to get them all from one company. Fingers crossed for a successful venture.
