This is our first year of doing this so I have a few questions. the protocal we are using says to give a shot of cystorelin the first day from day 6 to 10 heat detect and ai on day seven give all non responders a shot of lutalyse and ai 72 to 84 hours after and give another shot of cystorelin.my question is the cows that come in from day 6 to 9 when we breed them should we also give them another shot of cystorelin,give them a shot on day 10 also or not give them any more at all.thanks in advance

if a cow is in heat she'll ovulate (what the cystorellin does) so no real need to give a shot at the time of breeding if the cow was in heat.  It's not bad insurance though for $2/shot.

If you breed a cow, then she's done don't continue the protocol with her.
