Part two of four

Breeding

You never type a due date.

You turn cows out or you AI. You preg-check. Projected calving comes from the AI dates and the exposure windows.

Rocking Tank Ranch — the demo ranch on this walk

Turn out, AI, preg-check

  1. Turnout is the bull. AI Service is the straw. You pick one and write it.

  2. The call. Open, pick the cow, save the result.

  3. Bull exams sit with the breeding work, not off in a folder.

Writing an AI service

  1. Pick the cow, pick the straw, save.

  2. Feb 19 comes from May 12. You never type a due date.

  3. The straw comes out of the tank count on its own.

Projected calving

  1. Projected calving comes from the AI dates and the exposure windows you already wrote.

  2. Each straw has a projected date. The list is the dates, not a guess you typed.

  3. Bulls out make a window. The cows in that group show up here.
