How to Breed A Heifer - Artificial Insemination

It is finally breeding time! We have been planning for this for several months, and it is finally go time. Eric went to artificial insemination school in February. I was supposed to go in March, but it was cancelled due to the Corona virus. We are excited to be breeding this group of heifers. They were all born and raised on our farm and now Eric is breeding them. We selected GAR Momentum as the sire. We were able to get the semen through Select Sires. Out of 34 heifers, we ended up breeding 27 total which is very good. Hopefully at least 70% will take. The remaining heifers will be bred by our clean up bull, which is an angus bull. In this video we will walk you through the process of how to breed a heifer through artificial insemination. There are several different methods for artificial insemination, but this is the method we like best. Check out our CIDR videos to see the entire process. In this video we use our Arrowquip Q-Catch 86 series that we recently purchased. It is our first time breeding with it and it definitely didn't disappoint.
