- It is cheaper to
ship a liquid nitrogen container across the country
or world than to ship a horse.
- The mare can remain
at the farm, thus reducing the cost of shipping
as well as the stress of hauling the mare to another
farm.
- The breeding season
can continue even when the stallion is at a performance
event, ill or recovering from an injury.
- Differences in the
breeding season between northern and southern hemispheres
would no longer pose a problem.
- Semen from extremely
valuable stallions could be stored and used later
when their genetics are needed, even after they
have been dead for many years.
- Reduction of the
use of genetically inferior stallions. Stallions
could be selected regardless of location, thus increasing
the genetic pool and quality of the breed.
- Semen could be frozen
and stored from a young stallion, and then he could
be gelded.
- The convenience
of having the semen available at the breeding farm
may, in fact, reduce the cost of breeding a mare
- If the unfortunate
happened and the stallion died, the owner would
have frozen semen available for his or her own use
or to sell even after the stallion was dead.
- Many stallion owners
wait until it is too late to freeze their semen.
It is unfortunate to hear the many stories
of how they wish they had frozen it before he died.
A stallion is at his peak sperm output generally
at 5 to 12 years of age.
- Frozen semen on
your stallion is basically money in the bank!ervice
