Not sure how long it has been available but I do remember Delma Hazard having Snake collected at Univ. of Georgia and that was back in the '80's. I'm sure it was being done before that. If I find out, I'll post it.

There was frozen semen taken from Trumarc's Raider by owner Fred Benners. He had one breeding that I know of a few years ago.

Raider was the sire of Honcho, so you know that stuff dated back a ways.

I believe that the first collections were in the mid to late 70's. I know that there have been some semi-recent litters from frozen semen from Surfbreaker (Chessie) who was running FTs in the mid to late 70's.
