Brown Semen

[Adam72]

So today I bred 21 cows with warparty semen. I noticed that about half of the straws were clear like I'm use to but the others were a brownish color. Is this normal? I've never noticed it and was wondering if the "filler" they use at the labs are different color. Just making sure it wasn't bad semen as I just got it from my supplier last week.

Thanks.

Is the contents of the straw brown or is just the straw itself? I have blue, red, orange, white and clear straws but the semen contents are all the same milky white color

My guess given the description is... the straw itself is a light tan in color... and not a problem.

You'll see variation from batch to batch. It's perfectly normal.
