Internal Scrotal Temperature of Dairy Bulls as Determined by Telemetry

C. N. Graves, M. B. Ferguson1 and O. C. Miller2

Department of Dairy Science, University of Illinois, Urbana 61801

ABSTRACT

The internal scrotal temperature of 4 dairy bulls was measured by radio telemetry for periods of 4 to 24 hours during the first 6 days after surgery. Recordings on different days with different thermistors and under varying environmental temperatures changed little in either internal scrotal temperature or rectal-scrotal temperature differences within each bull. There was up to 2.8C difference in the internal scrotal temperature among the 4 bulls.
