An experiment was conducted to measure the effects of cobalt supplementation of pregnant heifers grazing pangola grass pastures on lactation and calf growth. Seven pregnant Hereford heifers were used, with three of these receiving a cobalt bullet and grinder four months after insemination. Cobalt supplementation of heifers had no effect on subsequent milk production or composition. However, cal...
A 3-yr study was conducted to determine the effect of supplemental protein source on ADG, feed intake, calf birth BW, and subsequent pregnancy rate in pregnant beef heifers. Crossbred, Angus-based, AI-pregnant heifers (yr 1, n = 38; yr 2, n = 40; and yr 3, n = 36) were stratified by BW (450 ± 10 kg) and placed in a Calan Broadbent individual feeding system at approximately d 142 of gestation. F...
The objective of this study was to determine whether administration of hCG approximately 5 d after AI would increase plasma progesterone concentrations and conception rates in beef heifers. Heifers from two locations (Location 1: n = 347, BW = 367 +/- 1.72 kg; Location 2: n = 246, BW = 408 +/- 2.35 kg) received melengestrol acetate (0.5 mg.heifer(-1).d(-1)) for 14 d and an injection of PGF2alph...
One hundred twelve crossbred feedlot heifers were used in two experiments to assess the impact of heat stress and its relief by shade and(or) water misting on behavior, physiology, performance, and carcass traits. Treatments were 1) no shading or misting (CONT); 2) only misting (MIST); 3) only shading (SHADE); and 4) shading plus misting (SHMI). Head in the feed bunk, head in or above the water...
Objectives of this study were to evaluate synchronization, conception, and pregnancy rates of heifers synchronized with melengestrol acetate (MGA)-prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α,), Select Synch, or Select Synch preceded by MGA (MGA-Select Synch). Heifers in the MGA-PGF2α group (n = 209; BW = 378 kg) received MGA (0.5 mg/ d per heifer) for 14 d and PGF2α (25 mg) 19 d later. Select Synch heifers (n = 2...
The objective of this study was to determine if biostimulation of prepuberal beef heifers by mature bulls would alter proportions of heifers exhibiting puberty, or age or weight at puberty. Angus (A), A X Hereford (H) and Tarentaise X HA heifers (n = 103) were stratified by age and weight within breed-type and location of birth and allotted randomly to the following treatments: 1) heifers expos...
Precocious puberty can be induced in a majority of heifers weaned early and fed a high-concentrate diet. The objective of this experiment was to determine whether induction of precocious puberty is associated with an acceleration of ovarian maturation in heifers. Crossbred Angus and Simmental heifer calves were weaned at 104 +/- 2 (n = 18; early weaned) or 208 +/- 3 (n = 10; normal-weaned, NW) ...
This experiment compared growth, body composition, plasma IGF-I and leptin, and reproductive development of beef heifers receiving or not recombinant bovine ST (BST) beginning after weaning until the first breeding season. Fifty Angus × Hereford heifers (initial BW = 219 ± 2 kg; initial age = 208 ± 2 d), weaned at approximately 6 mo of age, were assigned to the experiment (d 0 to 210). On d 0, ...
The objective of the experiment was to compare follicular dynamics, ovulatory response to GnRH, and synchrony of estrus and ovulation among estrous-cycling and prepubertal beef heifers synchronized with a controlled internal drug-release (CIDR)- based or GnRH-PGF(2alpha) (PG) protocol. Estrous-cycling beef heifers were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 treatments (C1, C2, C3, C4), and prepubertal bee...

Fifty Angus × Hereford heifers (initial BW = 219 ± 2 kg; initial age = 208 ± 2 d), weaned at approximately 6 mo of age, were assigned to the experiment (d 0 to 210). On d 0, ...
