ABSTRACT:
A breeding saddle for sows and gilts for use in artificial insemination that favorably affects litter size and farrowing rate, thereby improving productivity. The saddle has first and second straps and a vibrator for the straps. The first strap transmits vibrations to the animal's underline and the second strap transmits vibrations to a catheter inserted into her cervix thereby favorably affecting litter size and farrowing rate.
