I ultrasound mine at 30 days the first time. Just so if I missed a cow I got time to set her back up and get her bred again. Then I recheck them 55-90 post breeding to sex the fetus.

Ditto with us, but we do not check at 30 days unless we are not sure she stuck. We heat detect twice a day, so I am pretty sure when they get bred or not. But I did break my ankle a few weeks ago and missed a few days of heat detection, and was not sure about one of our cows so I drug her in, and she was open so we put in a CIDR to set her back up. But I know we are having two bulls in the fall (boo!).
