Breeding Stud

We did a side by side AI breeding last week and the stud dog's semen was all good and healthy no broken or bent tails and they were strong swimmers, however the semen was only 60%. My girls pg #'s all seemed to be on and we did 3 side by side breedings. I wanted to asked if anyone has done a breeding with a similar type of count and if so, how many puppies were produced? TIA

Re: Breeding Stud

60% of what, that matters. You are best with 250 million or more per breeding-need to know concentration as well as motility and morphology.

?????? I think that is what the op is asking sounds like 60% is the amount of concentration.

Re: Breeding Stud

You need to know the actual numbers, not the concentration. 60% of 200 million wouldn't be a good breeding, but 60% of 800 million would.

Exactly Nancy, thanks.
