GENSTOCK PTY LTD
Australia’s Longest Serving Sheep Artificial Breeding Company
-
GENSTOCK is a family owned business and was established in 1984 by
Craig and Elizabeth Heggaton. Craig was involved in the first commercial
laparoscopic artificial breeding programme in Australia. GENSTOCK
has always been in the forefront of sheep artificial breeding in Australia.
-
Currently we laparoscopically inseminate 40,000 ewes and perform
embryo transfer on 3000 donors a year. Since 1983, GENSTOCK has performed
1,000,000 laparoscopic inseminations; 25,000 embryo transfer flushes
and pregnancy scanned more than 8 million ewes.
-
Due to the advancement in technology and improvement in Australian
standards in semen assessment, GENSTOCK averaged a 75% conception
rate in thelast season. In a single embryo transfer season, mature
ewes averaged 7.5 pregnancies per donor flushed and maiden ewes (from
6 months of age) averaged 5.1 pregnancies per donor flushed.
GENSTOCK has the most advanced facilities available in Australia, including
the largest on centre embryo transfer facility which provides our clients
with the best recipient selection and management in the breeding industry.
We have highly qualified and dedicated staff who are easily contactable
