vets that do semen draw?

Wonder if Dr earl or the other vets charge the same for a goat? jus kidding.... I very well know the answer to that........
 
Earl Souva isn't a Dr that I am aware of. Doesn't mean he isn't good at collecting on a buck, but I like that when a buck is down on the table there is a vet handy incase something goes bad. It is also nice to have him do a general health inspection at the time.

Again I am not cutting on Earl, just stating I like having a vet handy for the money we pay to collect.
 
Didnt know that, I was under the impression he was a vet, not from him but other people. Good point Roger. Jack, one other thing that I thought of after reading Rogers post. I have a friend a few miles up the road that has "sold" 2 nice breeders that he had to give the money back on because he tried to collect them before he shipped them. One didnt make it on the trailer and one didnt make it off...... Just something to toss around if you're selling this deer for a decent amount of money. I'm pretty sure those collections were by a vet and both deer had complications. Thats just 2 of several he's sold and done that to but it does happen and is probably something to be considered.
 
Well, when I talked to EARL yesterday, I called him Dr Souva when he answered the phone. He didn't state that he wasn't a doctor and didn't correct me on the usage of the title.



I have noticed that on whitetail Exchange some semen sellers list the Univ of IL as the place of storage. Does anyone know if the Univ. of IL has anyone that does semen collections? What about Penn State Univ.?
 
Jack maybe call Zimmermans???... I am wanting to draw at the same time as antler cut off...I was wandering if that was possible??? I even thought about putting a cidr in a junk doe as a teaser. I want to breed a few doe live with him and don't want to draw after...Zimmermans Custom Freezing. 131 Red Well Road New Holland, PA. 17557.

Dr. Shipley works out of the U of I and does do ai, laproscopic, and semen collection.His # is 217 333-7232. His vet tech Kim handles alot of that semen storage and might know if he travels your way. Rick
