Reproductive tract scores and pelvic measurements are useful tools for heifer selection and breeding management. Performed about 30 days prior to breeding, examinations will identify heifers that are not expected to be cycling at that beginning of the breeding season or that have an abnormally small pelvic area.

Artificial insemination allows genetically superior bulls to be used in any herd. Bulls are selected based on EPDs for birth weight and calving ease, milk production and growth, or carcass traits. Estrous synchronization allows for breeding of all animals in a group on a single day and can help shorten the calving season.

Trans-rectal ultrasound performed between 35 and 90 days of gestation can be used to accurately determine fetal age for sire identification (ET or AI vs natural service sire) or due date estimation. Fetal sexing performed between 65 and 90 days of gestation is commonly used for marketing of bred females.

Superovulation of donors allows the best cows in a herd to produce multiple calves per year. Flushing can be performed at your farm and embryos can be transferred fresh or frozen for later use.
