ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION OF DOES

Here's a good site explaining it. Yep, looks like a surgical procedure for both the donor and recip. It's SO much easier in cows!

Hey CM....you're big on research...why don't you try that probe out and get back to us about how it feels.

Oh, and when I was having trouble finding a buck, I asked around about AI. Found out that I could buy a couple of registered, bred does for the same price. Ended up buying a buckling who got the job done, sold him for the same price, and got my does bred for the price of a few bales of hay and a bit of grain. And extra laundry soap....

That a great idea for anyone have trouble finding a buck, hopefully that won't be a problem for us

I plan on doing the same thing this fall, too. I live in the suburbs, so keeping a buck is something I can only do once it is chilly and people have their windows closed!
