Cow/Heifer Option
The Cow/Heifer progeny calculator provides a single drop-down list containing all of your active females, regardless of age. It also provides numerous tabbed selection list of bulls. As with the ‘Bull’ option, you select the female you wish to flush, retrieve her information, select the bull candidate(s), and click the ‘Calculate Progeny…” button. The results will be provided in the same format as the ‘Bull’ option. Keep in mind that the cow and bull will need to be DNA parent verified to record ET calves.
