[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 963609, member: 14585"] Not a partnership, but this is what I did with a friend/neighbor that A.I.'s his very nice commercial herd. I wanted replacements from a breed he doesn't use. I bought and supplied the gender selected semen of bull of my breed choice to his A.I. tech and agreed to pay market price plus a $100 bonus for each heifer calf weaned that was sired by my bull. He paid the arm service fee because he already uses A.I. so it was not an additional expense for him. I got the replacements I desired and in addition to the bonus, and saving on semen expense for him, he had the peace of mind knowing heifer calves equal calving ease. Because of lower conception rates using gender selected semen, we agreed to A.I ing 10 older cows to unsexed semen of the same bull for me, which saved me a few dollars on semen expenses too. It worked well enough that I plan on doing something similar again in a couple of years. [/QUOTE]
