I know that a lot of you are AI'ing your cattle and I was wondering if any of you had used sexed semen before and with what results.
I did some reading on it a year or so ago and the article writer said that the semen production houses tended to use semen from bulls that were lower quality than non-sexed semen.
Also mentioned that the "concentration" of sperm cells was less in sexed semen as well as the actual sperm cells for female sex semen were a lot smaller and a lot less mobile/motile ?
More expensive as well.
Any thoughts anyone ?
