1. Prepare Cow
2. Scan patch and assign cow.
*See App Functions, Scan Patch/Activate
- Be sure antenna is operating before patches are scanned. The patches need to be able to communicate with the antenna.
3. Glue
- Be sure to order extra glue for touch ups. (1 bottle does 8-9 cows)
4. Button
Button on patch should be on the top side, not next to the hide, with button side closest to rear of cow. Place button ahead of where a recip would need blocked to put in the embryo. This slightly forward placement on the tail head assures:
- Patch does not need to come off when implanting embryo.
- Keeps button off high point of tail head, protecting it from the main force of mounting.
- Puts the front of the patch in line with hook bones on most cows.
