[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1390528, member: 16453"] I think I'd get a 2nd opinion in a couple of months. First he is very young and 2ndly if the vet didn't even look at the semen under the microscope then how would he know? Sure the sample he got may have looked very clear but that may have been the result of the sampling technique, you will get some bulls that don't just produce the goods through electrical stimulation and you may only get watery seminal fluid and that is no fault of the bull. I am a retired vet myself and can easily borrow from my friend an electro ejaculator to do my testing for my bull sale however for the sake of impartiality I get another friend who is a repro specialist to do my testing and he and his son always use internal massage to get the sample. It is very reliable and no stress on the bull and they have to be in there anyhow to check the accessory sex organs. The samples always seem to be very consistent. Ken [/QUOTE]
