Take the Gamble Out of Breeding
Our highly effective and affordable ESTROTECT™ Breeding Indicators make a valuable addition to any breeding program. Packing multiple uses, including cattle estrus detection, cycle monitoring, pregnancy indication and embryonic loss identification, our Breeding Indicators are proven to help increase confirmed pregnancy rates.

The Breeding Indicator’s patented design is packed with features to make life easier for breeders. Click or tap each feature on the graphic above to get the specifics.
HOW ESTROTECT™ WORKS
Our Breeding Indicators are more than just cattle heat detection patches. They identify all the main breeding considerations, making it easy for you to determine optimal estrus intensity, monitor cycles, indicates pregnancies and evaluate embryonic loss.
Identify When Cattle are in Optimal Estrus
When the Breeding Indicator is more than 50% rubbed off, it means the cow is in optimal estrus intensity and it’s time to breed. Research has proven that cattle express higher estrus intensity, and therefore, confirmed pregnancies are three times more likely when the patch is more than 50% rubbed off.1
Monitor Estrus at a Glance
The fluorescent colors of the Breeding Indicators make it easy to pinpoint where each animal is in their cycle — allowing for optimal estrus detection in cattle without someone being present when the mounting activity occurs.
Indicate Pregnancy
Breeding Indicators offer a simple and accurate method of pregnancy detection in cattle. If the patches show no signs of estrus activity following breeding, the cows or heifers can be assumed pregnant.
Identify Embryonic Loss
ESTROTECT™ Breeding Indicators can help identify embryonic loss by placing a patch on a cow or heifer after they have been confirmed pregnant. If the Breeding Indicator shows any signs of activity, it indicates she went back into heat and is no longer pregnant.
Application
Easy as 1-2-3-4-5
With just five simple application steps, adhering the Breeding Indicator to your cattle is a breeze. To ensure optimal results, it’s important to follow each step carefully. We provide detailed instructions in video, web and printable formats to guide you through the process.
REVIEWS
My "go to" for heat detecting
We have used several different heat detectors, and have found Estrotect detectors the easiest to use.
Accurate with no mess!
These detectors have been a game changer on our Dairy Farm. There’s no messy glue, just peel and stick, how much easier can it get. Our heat detection rate has climbed significantly since switching to estrotect, and I will never use anything else.
Perfect name for the perfect product BULLSEYE
Best breeding tool around .
I won’t use anything else!!
We utilize estrotect heavily with 2 rounds of AI. It helps give you a little insight on first round AI conception rates.
Great product!
Great product! I use them every spring and fall when I’m setting up my herd for AI breeding or embryo transfer!
