    my strongest weanling heifer was bulling this morning, and all night by the looks of it, definately bulled, tail up. how long should I leave before injecting? My own fault, I should have had her out by now.

    10days, but at 3 weeks it will definitely work. Also if she's bulling again in 3 weeks no need to inject her at all.

    Out of interest, how old is she?

    weanling heifer I sold came back to me this spring..in calf! she had gone in calf at approx 6 mths of age, dept wouldnt register her calf till I got the vet to fill out some form verifying she had actually calved. last year they were on creep from the time they went out and I believe it brought them on that bit sooner even!
