[QUOTE="Adam Freeman, post: 1774454, member: 39732"] The College I was referring to is Kansas State University and the Kansas Artificial Breeding Service Unit. Thy also sell supplies and do collections there along with several other programs. The tanks are securely stored, and the liquid nitrogen is topped of every 5 or 10 weeks depending on the size of your tank. They charge you for the LN they put in as well as a service fee. For someone like me that is only doing AI once a year it makes sense to have them handle the storage and filling up of the tank until I need access to it. We are only doing about 25 head a year right now but hopefully it will work out well and we can grow here in the next few years. As for tanks I am looking at the MVE XC 20 tank right now. It seems to have good reviews and I found some that were around 600-700 dollars. I have reached out to several local AI techs and a few ranchers and dairy farmers who have been recommended to help with the whole process and I am planning on trying to get to a class here soon.
