So if you wanted the animals to be "Red" then maybe all the white that would...

    AI question

    I agree with CAB.  But sometime if you have a problem breeder we have even used 3 units of semen.  Bred the cow when she first came into heat, 12 hours later and then another 12 hours. Had a cow one time for a dairyman we discovered needed to breed at almost 36 hours to get her bred.
