*Can You Articially Inciminate Chickens??*

[Tripp16]

Hope this is the right place. I was thinking though (I know weird thoughts... Lol ) but can you Articially inciminate a hen?

If so how would you collect the sperm?

I know this is weird but I breed dogs and we do that with them.

 

[hemet dennis]

They do it all the time

Yes you can, well know breeders have been doing it for decades, heck I do it on my SQ Cornish as a regular program to get better breeding control.

Id rather have the rooster do it.

How do you do get the sperm from the rooster? I mean they are definitley not like my dogs.

there's a good video on Youtube that shows ya how to collect the roosters sperm. and then when you get ready to inseminate the hen it shows you that to.

Wow that is amazing and kine of gross. I was thinking of doing it from bantam roo Paisley to one of my LF hens. Im not sure though it may be to hard.....

There are several different technics and it just depends on what is easiest and what you feel comfortable with. Going from LF to Bantam or vise versa doesn't matter, but why would you I am interested to hear why the size swap in the birds.

Well I was wanting to breed my best layer with my bantam roo mainly because I hope the size might decrease and I would have a bantam/LF that lays alot of eggs. Alot of my bantams do lay good but not as good as my big hens.

Am I in the wrong for thinking this? I was wondering if it would mess the offspring up??
