Bixby, Oklahoma…James and Debbie Glover, together with Kristen and Wesley Galyean, of Double G Ranch LLC, are pleased to announce the introduction of a new product offering for breedings to their stallion, Invest N Vital Signs.

The newly-released “X-Extender” product has shown amazing results when used in prevention of the H gene in breeding to N/H horses. This additive kills the sperm cells that possess the H gene associated with HYPP. In the case of an N/H stallion, only the negative (N) sperm cells would be viable to fertilize the egg and result in an N/N foal. Although it is too early to say if it works 100%, the results have been amazing. Research and development of this product has been done by Dr. Clay Dean of Texas.

To continue the support of their stallion, Invest N Vital Signs, the Glover Family will purchase one dose of X-Extender additive and provide it to each full price breeding. For Breeders who have purchased the breeding through a futurity program, have received a discounted breeding price or are using a rebreed option, the Mare Owner will be able to purchase the X-Extender from Gumz Farms at the cost of $175 per dose. The X-Extender may be shipped with cooled semen orders or used in on-farm breeding at Gumz Farms.

Invest N Vital Signs is standing the 2010 season at Gumz Farms in Morganfield, Kentucky. He is enrolled in the AQHA Incentive Fund, NSBA, Kentucky Breeders Incentive and the Tom Powers and Southern Belle futurity programs in addition to his own AQHA World Show Bonus Program.

I too have heard it was not selective in the HYPP status of sperm immobilized. Just that roughly 50% of sperm was. I can not find a published study result either so until I do I am very skeptical of this newest "miracle"

Confused
I have been seeing a so called "HYPP Extender" advertised on many HYPP positive stallions ads and upon doing my own research online, all I have seen is that it does not work. It is supposed to immobilize sperm that carries the HYPP positive gene but according to studies it did immobilize 50% of the sperm but had no affect on the HYPP affected cells, it immobilized both kinds equally. I am not sure what to believe, it does seem to good to be true. If anyone knows where to find the actual published results of the study I would love to see it. I think there are still a lot of questions to be answered.
