Ultrasound - a new look at reproduction!

• Do you want to know to a day or two when your cows are due? Do you want to know if you are going to get a heifer or bull calf?
• Do you want to know if your cow may be pregnant with twins or triplets?
• Do you want to know if a potential cull cow is carrying a heifer or if a cow is aborting a pregnancy?

All of these concerns are answered routinely by Dr. Comyn using Ultrasound. Dr. Comyn has been using Ultrasound to enhance reproductive outcomes in cattle since 2001. Using a battery operated E-Z Scan he can diagnose pregnancy down to 23 or 24 days (depending on the cow), diagnose fetal gender (the window to diagnose fetal gender is between 53 and 100 days bred).

• Multiple pregnancy can be seen at @  25 -  26 days post breeding.
• Less time spent per cow than with traditional palpation.
• The cost of ultrasound is about $1 more per cow than regular palpation. 

The difference is better information to help you manage your cows more effectively.
