    What is a fair price to be charged for AI service? Not including the cost of semen or the cost of synchronization, but just for them to breed your cow. On a per animal bases what would your opinion be?

    First off welcome to the forum! :)
    I do my own AI and embryo work and struggle with this question when asked how much I would charge. It will be interesting to read the responses! :)

    It's the going rate for that portion of the service from the Vet I use.

    Is that taking the animal to them or do they come out to you? and how many head are they doing in one trip?

    It is taking the animal to them. And that is not including any other procedure or CIDR.
