Semen was collected by artificial vagina using a doe as a dummy from 2 Californian, 2 New Zealand White (NZW) and 2 Blue Viena (BV), a total of 6 mature bucks throughout the study. Principle spermatological parameters were evaluated in fresh semen. In this study, no significant differences among individuals and breeds were determined for morphologic sperm abnormalities and sexual behavior (p>0.05). But, differences among individuals and breeds for ejaculate volume (p<0.01), sperm motility (p<0.001), sperm concentration (p<0.001), dead sperm (p<0.001), sperm viability (p<0.001), and sperm pH (p<0.05) were found significant.
