How do you get heifers in heat?

She will naturaly come into heat every 21 days, however, if she is not coming in heat an injection of a synthetic prostoglandin is recommended. This will cause regression of the corpus luteum (what aids in heat cycles). You will see a heat cycle within 2 to 5 days post injection. Discuss with your veterinarian what injection is available in your area and what is best suitable for your herd. An example of this type of injection is Estrumate.
