A.I.

[SmallFarmGirl]

Dear Friends,
I'm considering using A.I. to breed my goats.
Here's some of my questions:
Could ya'll tell me prices,experiences,stories you've heard? Did you go through training, or did you hire someone?
Trying to see if this is a better choice than getting a buck. Also, would it be good to get a male that's been fixed?

Thanks in advance.

To do it right and get high conception rates it is expensive to get started.

See previous posts below. They might not answer all your questions but it's a start. Feel free to ask any questions you may still have.

Thanks so much! Could I hire someone in my area to do it for me? Vets can't. There are no vets around me that can do that. Thanks again!

Where are you located?
You could ask around. Check with show breeders in your area. Either dairy goat or Boer goat.
