Berning Veterinary Services is encouraging area cattle producers to schedule pregnancy checking appointments with Dr. Jayden Simpson or Dr. Kyle Berning. Pregnancy checking can provide valuable herd management information by helping producers identify open cows and heifers before carrying unnecessary winter feed costs. Evaluations may also help identify potential herd health or management concerns and indicate when a bull may be underperforming. Regular veterinary herd work can also help producers establish and maintain a veterinarian-client-patient relationship for ongoing livestock health needs. Berning Veterinary Services provides veterinary care for livestock and companion animals. Producers interested in scheduling pregnancy checks or requesting additional information can contact Berning Veterinary Services at 620-355-9110.
