We successfully collected semen from Diesel (Mr Bordeaux Big Red) this morning. Semen assessment is an important part of the collection process and evaluates the fertility in males. It is a routine element of the pre-breeding examination.

It is generally assumed that the number of motile spermatozoa necessary for successful artificial insemination should be greater than 150 million per ml (Linde-Forsberg, 1991).

The sample collected from Diesel was outstanding. The concentration in the whole ejaculate was 258 million per ml. Diesel produced 14 ml of ejaculate. This means that a whopping 3.6 billion individual spermatozoa was produced in a single collection. Very impressive!!
