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
Owner/ Operator
Most definitely! Been using Estrotect for a number of years with great success!
Takes the guesswork out of heat detecting!
When we started using Estrotect heat detector patches, we increased our conception rate dramatically! Would never go back to AI’ing without them. Saves time and money!
Simple & Effective
We’ve been using these heat patches for several years. I travel out of town near when I expect cows to cycle back and they are helpful to identify cows that came back in heat even when I wasn’t there to check them. I warm them against my skin before applying and usually am ripping hair off with them when trying to remove them, they stick good!
On the money detection
Has not let us down yet! Make things a lot easier, saves Time which is money and is extremely accurate. Would not want to go back to the old days.
Confidence
These patches are fail resistant. If they are solid color BREED them. Sure takes the guess work out of it even if
you have time to watch for heats.
Thank you.
