Description Kamar Heatmount Detectors are a valuable heat detection aid that assist in identifying cows that are ready to be bred artificially. The detector is a pressure-sensitive device with a built-in timing mechanism designed to be activated by standing heat behavior. Glued onto the sacrum (tail head), pressure from the brisket of a mounting animal requires approximately 3 seconds to turn the detector from white to red. This timing mechanism helps assure activation from a true standing heat mount versus false mounting activity. Standing heat behavior in the bovine is the most reliable sign that a cow is ready to be bred. The University of Maryland, in a Journal of Dairy Science report, indicated efficiency of the Kamar Heatmount Detector was as high as 84% when combined with visual observation. Visual-only was 68% in the same study. • The first name in heat detection since 1960 • Identify more cows in heat • More profitable calving intervals • More accurate insemination; fewer wasted inseminations • For a more successful breeding program
