PHANTOM TRAINING
Phantom training consists of teaching the stallion
to mount a "phantom" mare and ejaculate into an artificial vagina.
The stallion is collected one time the first day, and then on two occasions,
one hour apart on the next day, or day after. The first of the two collections
is discarded, serving only as a "clean-up". The second and third
collections are taken at least one hour apart, and both samples are evaluated
for sperm concentration, motility and morphology, and extension.
Phantom training of stallion: $200.00 per session*
*Sessions are for a one hour period
*minimum of 2 sessions for evaluation & shipping purposes
COOLED SEMEN
Once the stallion has been collected it is advisable
to evaluate the ability of the stallion's semen to ship in an Equitainer,
cooled. The semen is evaluated and extended using several different extenders
and concentrations. Samples are then packed in the Equitainer and evaluated
at several different times: 24 hours, 48 hours and possibly 72 hours.
Collection of ejaculate and evaluation for on-site insemination:
$100.00*
Collection of ejaculate, evaluation, and extension: $150.00*
Collection
of ejaculate, evaluation, extension, and FedEx shipment: $250.00**
Equitainer deposit (refundable upon return): $300.00 (credit card number required)
*Prices are based on stallion owners handling their own stallions. Handlers are available at $50/hour, if needed. Since collection prices are based on a one hour session, if additional time is required, price increases at a $100/hour rate.
**All fees must be paid prior to shipment.
All prices are in US dollars.
