Blood Dying or DNA Requirements

One requirement that is generally common for all breed registry associations is that a record of the blood type of each bull used in artificial insemination be on file with the respective breed associations.  Whether blood typing or DNA analysis is required, it is the responsibility of the owner of record to make certain that compliance is met.  This can be accomplished by asking the breed association to mail a test kit.

Processing Charges

If a prompt payment history has been established by an existing custom account, then CHAMPION GENETICS, INC. will continue to service that account under its current credit policy.  However, if a custom account has been chronically in arrears or if a new custom account is being established, then a total prepayment of all projected charges will be required prior to any collection efforts.  Credit card billing can be arranged if payment in this manner is preferred.

• Billed to account:  $2.80 per straw + $50.00 laboratory fee before or at the time of collection on the farm/ranch or upon delivery of the bull to CHAMPION GENETICS, INC.’s custom housing, payment must be made for the number of units requested. 
• A $75.00 discard fee in addition will be charged when AI quality semen is discarded at the owner’s request.  This fee applies when ET-only semen quality is demanded by the sire’s owner.
• Semen Quality Checks:  $50.00 (with veterinarian referral).
• Microscopic evaluations of CHAMPION GENETICS, INC. processed semen:  No charge.
• Microscopic evaluations of other stud processed semen:  $50.00 per sample.

As a matter of routine practice, all collections of semen that are currently frozen by CHAMPION GENETICS, INC. are subjected to these microscopic evaluations:

1. Post thaw motility

3. Morphology

Partnership Bulls

CHAMPION GENETICS, INC.’s policy is to bill only one party for each sire’s collection.  Should an extreme situation exist which would absolutely require more than one party to be billed, please consult with the custom Director beforehand.  Additional fees will be added to each collection to defray the expense of documentation to each partner/owner
