Re: Frozen Boar Semen
We used some 2-3 years back to tap some little used Chester genetics from the past. Our experience was positive. The process is a bit more complicated, so have someone walk you through it. We used SGI and they were great in terms of product and information to help us be successful. I am sure any of the companies that are selling frozen will be eager to help you. As for conception compared to fresh, there can be a drop off. However, you can also book and purchase your entire breeding season if you wish,ship once, and have on hand when you need it. That's a bonus. We would not hesitate to use again, particular to utilize genetics from the past. Good luck!
