Pricing theory

Like most breeders, we use artificial insemination and embryo methods from time to time. And while we prefer to use our own bulls as much as possible, we have secured supplies of The Shadow, Superbowl, Boomerang, Emperor and Coach for our own use.
       When we could discern no particular pattern to the pricing we encountered, we discovered that there exist at least two main pricing strategies which are 180 degrees apart. One theory calls for bargain prices so that breeders can afford to breed lots of cattle and make many babies. The other says that if you price your semen at a premium price then it will only be used on the better cattle, hence you have fewer offspring of a supposedly higher quality. We embrace neither of these approaches, preferring instead to price the semen at a price we believe is fair to all involved. As a result, you may see some prices below that are unique, and hopefully all of them will be attractive to potential users.

Ordering

We typically fill orders promptly from our storage service in Elgin, Texas. Please either call us or email us with your request (our contact information is listed in the footer at the bottom of each page).  Our prices are listed without shipping as those may vary and a deposit on the shipping container is customary.

We will ship any number or combination of straws, and we typically offer volume discounts for 12 straws or more, mix or match.
