out of season ovine breeding

Want to capitalize on the ewe’s short gestation period? Too many empty animals that you don’t want to cull? An out-of-season breeding program may be just what you need.
Thanks to the co-operation between industry, producers, veterinarians and the government; sheep CIDRs have been approved for use in Canada. CIDRs are available for sale through your veterinary clinic providing a convenient and effective method of inducing estrus to force ewes to cycle.  Please contact us for a consultation if you are struggling with pregnancy rates in your flock.
