Progress being made in assisted reproduction techniques for ostriches
The long term objective to breed ostriches according to scientific principles and to provide expertise to the local industry on the subject has been given a boost thanks to research by Dr Marna Smith. She has established a protocol by which to cool ostrich semen successfully for up to two days, or to store it indefinitely after freezing until it is required for the artificial insemination of female birds.
