Stallion 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 2 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.
Training Includes
Training of stallion to phantom mount
Training cost per stallion $200.00 per session
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 & extended using several different
extenders & concentrations. Samples are then packed in the Equitainer &
evaluated at several different times: 24 hours, 48 hours & possibly 72
hours.
