This is a real breakthrough for the American seed stock producer and should be helpful to breeders wanting new markets for their top herd sires. Each year we have visitors from 30 to 40 different countries viewing sires in residence. During the time a sire is being collected there are no boarding charges if the sire is freezing . The only additional cost would be for any vet charges. Vet charges are not included in this price.
Some countries require an independent vet to supervise all collections and freezing.
Before collecting begins for the EC, the sire must be held at our stud for 70 to 80 days of pre-isolation quarantine. If you wish, during that time you have the option of having him collected for domestic and overseas markets. We collect year round for all countries now. Vet charges are not included in this price. Australia requires a residency period of 45-60 days before collecting can begin.
