Title: A Comparison Of Ram Semen Collected By Artificial Vagina and Electro- Ejaculation
Abstract: This aim of this study was to compare the quality of ram semen samples collected by means of artificial vagina and by electro-ejaculation. Semen samples were collected from 18 young post pubertal Dorper rams by both methods and analysed for quality by standard laboratory procedures. Results showed that both methods are suitable for semen collection in rams, but the artificial vagina collection method produces better semen samples with higher concentration and percentage of live sperm than electro-ejaculation. No differences in sperm morphology were found between the two semen collection methods.
