Pregnancy Testing
Our pregnancy testing services utilise ultrasound technology to provide accurate assessments of your cows' pregnancy status. This method allows us to determine the precise number of days a cow has been pregnant.
Why you should ultrasound pregnancy testing your cows and heifers:
-
Accuracy: Early-age scanning between 42 and 90 days of gestation provides the most precise dates.
-
Early Detection: Early detection of pregnancy allows for better management and planning of your herd.
-
Health Monitoring: Identifying pregnant cows early helps monitor their health and ensure proper nutrition and care throughout gestation.
-
Early-age scanning provides more precise calving date predictions, aiding in strategic dry-off decisions such as staggering and extending milking periods for certain cows.
-
We conduct a 35-day scan following a non-cycler program to verify pregnancy. If the cow is not pregnant, we can initiate another non-cycling program as needed.
