Pregnancy Testing

With over 150,000 cattle manually pregnancy tested and counting, Dr Britten brings experience and precision to herd reproduction management. Trained by industry leaders and refined in the north of Australia, we pride ourselves on service and accuracy.

At BL Veterinary Services, we combine manual palpation and ultrasound-guided pregnancy testing, ensuring accurate results with a practical understanding of when and where each method works best.

Dr Britten is also an Australian Cattle Vets (ACV) Accredited Pregnancy Tester, which means we are authorised to apply official ACV tags for sale cattle, giving producers the assurance and marketing advantage of verified pregnancy status.

Informed Decisions

Pregnancy Testing isn't just a routine check, it's one of the most powerful management tools for running a profitable and efficient cattle operation.

Identify non-pregnant cattle early
Detecting empty cows means you can make timely decisions, rejoin, sell or adjust feeding to ensure you are saving money on animals that aren't producing.
Plan calving with confidence
We pride ourselves on the ability to accurately identify which cows are in calf and what stage of pregnancy they are at. This allows you to tailor feed and segregate your herd, allocate labour and manage facilities reducing stress during peak periods.
Improve Nutritional Management
Pregnancy status determines nutritional needs. By grouping cattle based on pregnancy stage you can tailor their feed and supplements. Optimising your land and improving animal health and performance.
Enhance Profitability and Sustainability
Efficient herd management means fewer surprises and better returns. Pregnancy testing ensures your resources, feed, time and money are invested where they deliver results.
