SEMEN FREEZING: Every stallion owner's nightmare.... Your stallion suffers a disabling injury, has to undergo emergency surgery or dies. You have a full book of mares ready to breed. What would you do??? Harris Pints offers stallion owners (of all breeds) the ability to overcome this type of heartbreak and financial risk by freezing and storing semen from your stallion. Freezing your stallion's semen gives you the extra "insurance" to avoid financial loss in the event your stallion is unable to breed (whether temporarily or permanently). Freezing semen from your stallion also gives you the flexibility to compete with your stallion during breeding season as well. For popular stallions who may be overbooked, being able to offer frozen semen gives your customers the peace of mind that they won't have to miss a cycle in the event there isn't enough semen to ship on a specific day. Harris Paints is USDA approved to export semen Worldwide, thus giving your breeding program the ability to GO GLOBAL! |

A new service for the 2009 season is the availability to purchase an embryo from one of our mares to be shipped to the embryo recipient farm of your choice. |
