After waiting for Chloe to start bulling and nothing happening, we have had the vet out twice to her for injections,she is bulling tonight and so Genus is coming out in the morning. An expensive calf already and it hasn't even been conceived yet!!

Hi, just wondered if you were implanting an embryo?
If so, what breed is it?
How much did it cost for the vet to get her ready and for genus to implant?
We are very interested in importing embryos from Australia and America and wondered if you could give us a little bit more information please.
Many thanks
Adam.

Re Injections, I am assuming you have given Estrumate, can you not purchase a bottle from your vets, do the injections yourself and save the cost of call outs ?

Not sure if we can buy injections, will have to look into that for next time. We had thought of hiring a bull but as these are only really my pets we haven't got the space for a bull.

Not sure if AI worked as we saw some very strange behaviour from another cow who we thought was calving. How long should you leave then before they are pd?

30 days with a scanner and 6 weeks if by hand only. I think I remember these times right.
