[QUOTE="Redgully, post: 1734350, member: 33533"] If you get 0% i doubt very much nutrition has anything to do with it. If he is poor at a.i. some would still take. I would lean towards cooked semen, is his truck 24v? Maybe a bad batch of drugs but even that would be highly unlikely. I have heard of this before with a broken heater, surprisingly out of over 100 cows 6 still got bred and when they checked the temp it was 39⁰c which to my understanding no semen can survive. I've also heard those heaters can short circuit and electricute the sperm. When my embryologist uses his we always chuck in one of those heat cards as insurance. [/QUOTE]
