[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 784206, member: 14661"] Ideally you want the semen to stay immersed unless you're pulling it out for use. The temperature differance between immersion and sitting above nitrogen will damage the semen to a certain degree... That being said, the degree of damage is fairly minimal. I've run my tanks almost dry a few times and still had good results and I breed on average a hundred a day. There is a differance but I doubt you'll ever see it on a few head of well maintained beef cows. [/QUOTE]
