Abstract

Demand for laparoscopic artificial insemination in small ruminants is growing exponentially. Use of a well-designed estrus synchronization protocol allows does and ewes to be inseminated in a timely manner with good conception rates. Females are sedated with an intramuscular cocktail to facilitate inversion and laparoscopic access to their uterus for deposition of fresh or frozen semen directly into the lumen of both uterine horns.
