Student Run Meat Goat Herd

Artificial Insemination

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"University of Massachusetts Calliope" our first ever A.I. kid pictured above

UMASS 416, the doe we artificially inseminated, kidded on April 11, 2007 and had triplets-one buck and two does! Her kids are sired by Bon Joli Mr. Red Macho Man.

 

The UMass Boer Goat Herd began our Artificial Insemination breeding program in the fall of 2006. We purchased semen from BIO-GENICS and will continue to incorporate it into our breeding program in the fall of '08! Through A.I., we hope to increase the percentage and conformational quality of our herd as well as educate UMASS students on the process.

Stay tuned for more AI kids sired by some of the highest quality bucks in the country!

AI Bucks of 2006-2007

Bon Joli Mr. Red Macho Man

We are extremely proud to have Mr. Red's genetics introduced to our herd. He is a 3rd generation red buck that has the muscle and meat qualities we strive for.

Outback Boers Scorpios Stinger

Stinger is the son of "T4 Scorpio" a well known red buck in the industry. Stinger is an up and coming buck who is making a name for himself as a meat producer with color as an added bonus! He was used on our does in the spring of 07'. We look forward to seeing his kids as we have very high expectations for his superior genetics.
