[QUOTE="Princess Pooper, post: 7918349, member: 971"] Depends if you are only doing heat detection or using the rumen/eating monitoring that is part of the package on many of them. If the latter then you would want to leave them on for longer and possibly get one per cow, including your barreners. We used to take them off when PD+ but now that we get the rumen monitoring we have one per cow, has been very useful in a couple of incidents. (One was fodder beet acidosis in the whole herd last year, lost 2 cows but the collars helped us to pick out the less obvious ones whom we were able to save. Also useful at picking up mastitis esp E.coli a few hours before it might be obvious.) [/QUOTE]
