Nebraska | I used to be in Iowa so I understand the small pasture deal but the Mr Simon is right, if you’re bulls are worth their salt, you are making it too complicated. We only give heifers a timed ai and one cleanup cycle so there’s no rotating bulls nor would I go to the trouble other than in the case of injury. In small pastures I would try to have 1 or 3, figuring no fighting or while two fight 1 will be breeding.
I don’t think the problem is the op bull power with 3 of them out there unless they are terrible at their job. I would bet a fair amount of money it’s his heifers, that while the group is cycling, he has a percentage that is not. So if he wants more bred in the defined timeframe he needs to adjust nutrition or accept that the ones that didn’t aren’t good enough for his current system and they proved it by being open. | |
