[QUOTE="lazyhill, post: 30640, member: 256"] This one varies significantly based upon the services performed. If you are going to do heat detection and take the cow to the vet at the proper time, there is minimal cost. If you want someone to do heat detection for you, costs go way up because you are paying for days of boarding also. If you want to synchronize and leave for someone else to do, there is usually some boarding for a day or so during the process. Semen varies significantly also depending upon the sire. Some for as little as $5 a straw and I've seen some recently for as much as $200 per straw. So your costs could be anywhere from $30 or so to as much as $300 including heat detection and boarding. Check with your vet and ask around about some local folks that will do AI work. Most people are part-time farmers and may do their own AI but usually don't have time to do it for someone else.
