Please Note:

  • Prices listed are per-straw or amp (or magic wand). Shipping is not included and requires separate arrangement: Shipping Information. Most of this semen is located at Hoffman AI Breeders in Utah.

  • Our commitment to help other breeders build their herds is a continuing priority. It has been said that “the unadulterated FULLBLOOD genetics of all breeds will be the most valuable resource in the coming years”. The truth of this statement is becoming more apparent as Modern Shorthorns continue “to go off the rails”. As the amount of semen available on the best old Heritage Shorthorn bulls is used up or lost through accident/neglect the reality is that we are all facing a new paradigm when using Heritage Shorthorn genetics where maximizing the production value of every amp/straw becomes a priority.
