Annual Breeding Soundness Exam Days for producers are hosted in conjunction with local veterinarians at different locations and times throughout the year. These events allow producers to bring bulls in for assessment of their health and reproductive potential prior to the breeding season. Veterinarians perform a breeding soundness exam, general physical exam, and offer both vaccinations and testing for trichomoniasis.
