HeatWatch is all about making an Artificial Insemination program much more efficient…getting cows/heifers settled early, at minimum cost and on time.

The new HeatWatch II represents the most accurate and efficient means of estrus detection available to beef and dairy breeders using artificial insemination. Utilizing state of the art wireless technology, HeatWatch II uses small, digital radio transmitters incorporating a pressure switch that are glued onto the tailheads of your cattle. These transmitters continuously monitor all mounting activity of your cattle and transmit the mounting data (cow I.D., date of mount, time of day of the mount & duration of the mount) to your computer where advanced software algorithms examine the mounting profile of each animal. The software is looking for mounting criteria known to be indicative of true estrus. Information can then be relayed back each cow’s transmitter. In its simplest form HeatWatch II -
