New video on our channel: The whole truth about obtaining and testing ram semen – experts reveal. Artificial insemination of sheep
Photo is illustrative in nature. From open sources.
Weighing rams of various breeds: Suffolk, Akkarabas, Edilbaevskaya, and Texel, and collecting semen from them. Semen quality control under a microscope, packaging of biomaterial in thermoses. Artificial insemination of Kazakh fine-wool sheep.
The main goal of the video is to demonstrate a professional approach to obtaining and properly testing semen from rams. The breed of ewe used for mating is completely irrelevant in this case.The ewe acts solely as a "provocateur" here—the main requirement is that the ewe be in heat to stimulate mating. At this point, semen is extracted from the stud ram.
Several doses of semen are obtained from one ram, 3-4 times per night. All semen from the same ram is collected in a single test tube. Between 0.5 and 2 ml of semen is obtained from a ram at a time.
The resulting semen is carefully packed into thermoses designed to maintain the temperature and freshness of the biomaterial during transportation over a distance of approximately 30 kilometers to the flocks, where artificial insemination is carried out.
After receiving the biomaterial , the seminal fluid is examined under a microscope, and before insemination, immediately after delivery, the sperm undergoes a thorough check for sperm motility under a microscope - this quality control is vital for the successful production of healthy offspring.
All semen collection and quality control procedures are performed at night, allowing fresh semen to be delivered to the flocks as early as possible in the morning. This workflow improves sperm viability and insemination efficiency.
The video reveals the essence and technical aspects of obtaining, testing, and transporting semen from breeding rams—a key element of modern selection in sheep farming.
⚡️In this video, you will learn:
✔️ Weighing Suffolk, Akkarabas, Edilbaevskaya, and Texel stud rams before semen collection.
✔️ Ewes in heat stimulate semen production in rams.
✔️ Three to four doses of semen are collected from one ram per night in one test tube.
✔️ The semen volume at a time is 0.5-2 ml.
✔️ Semen is packaged in thermoses to maintain freshness.
✔️ Semen is transported 30 km to the flocks for insemination.
✔️ Semen quality is checked under a microscope upon receipt and before insemination.
✔️ Sperm motility is the key to successful insemination.
✔️ Semen collection is performed at night to ensure maximum freshness.
✔️ Artificial insemination of Kazakh fine-wool sheep.
