just ask me Posted June 29, 2009 Report Posted June 29, 2009 wow amazing really! what do you call cheap? i cant remember mate but i think to have 6 hens so that 12 young ones they guarantee that 4 hens will be fertile and u se one of there cocks as the father in which is probably some big national winner (think u can choose the father from there birds not sure ) i think it roughly works out at £30 £40 per young one in which the father will be a national winner that cheap enough it was a few year since i seen the vid this is the best i can do from seeing the vid maybe 5 6 years ago all the details im giving might be changed or a little different but I'm fairly right i think
Guest strapper Posted June 29, 2009 Report Posted June 29, 2009 considering it costs a whole lot of money to freeze sperm for humans im sure that it aint gonna be cheap for pigeons. is it cost effective? and if a sperm was taken from a champion ...wouldnt that infertilized egg youngster then be kept for stock and not sold? it has deffinately moved on from a cock in the shed treading an hen and having young from them...its now got to the point where we are messing around with nature . where will this end? jmpo.
