[QUOTE="Brand, post: 1207926, member: 23314"] I just went through with this and with carefully listening to the ET tech two cows froze 25 embryos conventional and were done in 16 days. IVF would of taken 30 days longer just to start up mainly cause of all the holidays that would stop shipments I wanted IVF here are the worries I had after listening closely the un fertilized embryos and semen is shipped to Texas for the process then shipped back to your Et facility your semen must be 5mil to work for the process. Also have backup semen up to three bulls if your first choices are not 5 mil sexed or conventional semen works the same its very rare to buy 5mil pre sexed semem IVF is still a gamble for the ET facility recommended for cows that have a great history of flushing, cows that are preg can be IVF and people that have plenty of money to experiment with. You will need cash up front enroll a cow in IVF $1100 per cow purchased preg receipts now are not as good as quality as they once were when cows numbers were much higher..70 day preg is now 3200 plus all costs and yardage implant everything else added the bill keeps adding they also highly recommend to use the same bull if you ivf more than one cow your extra semen is kept in Texas you must pay shipping to get your own semen back [/QUOTE]
