Camel Semen Collection made easier !!

  • Get highest semen quality
  • Get highest semen quantity
  • Easily build your customized camel semen bank

The Camel Dummy is recommended for:
➢ Camel reproductive centers
➢ Camel research centers
➢ Camel breeding farms
➢ Camel dairy farms

Note how the male camel is approaching the dummy that is placed beside a female camel in estrus. We sprayed her urine on the dummy to make it attractive for the male. Also find the rope attached to the camel dummy’s neck that enables a realistic head movement that excites the male camel even more.
After few approaches the confident male camel mounted the dummy. Need to mention that the dummy is equipped beneath with Artificial Vagina.
Normal mating and Semen Collection !!

How to select camel males for the Semen collection program ?

Practicaly , males sorted into 3 groups.

* First group : ( Recommended )
Males which have recently reached sexual maturity (7-8 years age) and have not practiced natural mating yet.
These males are usually acceptable to serve AVs after a short period of training and give excellent results in semen collection (semen volume and quality). These trained males will be the main source of semen in AI-program throughout their breeding lifespan

* Second group :
Males which have practiced natural mating for 4-5 breeding seasons (8-12 years age) These males take a relatively longer time and more effort for training to serve AVs. Most males of this type often accept mating with AVs after a training course of about 2-3 weeks at the beginning of the breeding season.

* Third group :
Elder males which have professionally practiced natural mating for 5-10 breeding seasons (12-20 years age)
These kinds of males are most likely to refuse mating with AVs. However, a small fraction of these males can accept training and collection with AVs after a long period of training (4-6 weeks of a condensed training course).

It is very essential to emphasize that alternation of the males between practicing natural mating and their employment in semen collection by the AVs is usually attended with an obvious mutiny of males to mate with the dummy , meaning that , For establishing a persistent AI program, males which have been selected and trained well for semen collection by AVs fitted inside a camel-dummy must be completely devoted for this mission in AI-centers and NEVER TO BE REUSED IN NATURAL MATING.
