[QUOTE="Northern Rancher, post: 713133, member: 5898"] Frankie ask any A'I stud what bull produces the best quality semen-a bull gaining weight or a hogfat showbull or test station stud-I' ve seen bulls at stud a year while they try and get them to produce freezable semen-they even have a term for it 'test station disease'.I'm a firm believer that you can flush a bull for semen production just like you do a cow for breeding. In fact our head lab lady at Alta Genetics explained it best-they bring them in fat-the semen is no good so the bull becomes more valuable because his genetics are rare. One thing that ultasound has done is you can tell just how fat the bulls are and judge accordingly. I'm about done flogging this horse-I get my satisfaction from a pen of my cattle on feed doing well!!! [/QUOTE]
