yes, it is used in turkey houses. ....Dirty Jobs had a feature on it one episode

Horses, sheep and dogs are artificially inseminated, also.

how do we do that i think it would be easier

How would it be easier? More labor intensive. Definitely not something I want to spend my time doing! Do a google search if you want the details.

 

[Skeeter10]

it would be easier because you know the hen will be bred

 

[Ol Grey Mare]

It is more practical for commercial iperations, would not be so for small/home operation

 

[Skeeter10]

if you really think about it its eaier

Disagreeing worth your opinion on the matter is not about lack of thought on the matter

I have a single rooster who happily and easily covers 20 laying gals, with 4 more soon to be at POL. Fertility is good. He's usually breeding a hen about every 10 minutes. I don't have to worry about IF he's breeding them! I don't know what could be any easier than that! I'd suggest that you do a study on the process, get practiced up, start an AI program with your flock, and come back in a month, and tell us how it's easier to do AI than to allow your roo to get the job done on his own.
