At Ashby Genetics, our mission is clear: to provide the highest-quality bovine assisted reproductive technologies while ensuring economic viability for our clients. Founded by Dr. Randall Hinshaw in Harrisonburg, VA, as an offshoot of Ashby Herd Health, we have proudly served the agricultural community for over 35 years. Our reputation for excellence in reproductive services has been built on decades of experience, innovative techniques, and an unwavering commitment to the long-term success of our clients. We work alongside you to achieve your goals, whether that’s improving herd genetics, boosting productivity, or enhancing profitability.

Serving primarily the Southeastern United States, we operate mobile teams out of Virginia, Georgia, and Tennessee frequently traveling to neighboring areas to meet the needs of producers. Whether you’re in the dairy or beef industry, we recognize the unique requirements of each operation and tailor our services to fit. We understand the importance of time and efficiency in your business, which is why we offer flexible scheduling and travel to ensure you receive the services you need, when you need them. For added convenience, donor boarding is available at a cooperating facility, Miller Angus, just ten minutes from our Virginia team’s home base.

Our full range of services includes conventional collections, ovum pick-up (OPU), and embryo transfer (ET). Additionally, we cooperate with Trans Ova Genetics to offer clients the option of in-vitro fertilization (IVF), providing the highest level of genetic advancement available.

Our teams are certified by the American Embryo Transfer Association (AETA) and are USDA-approved for international embryo export, including to China. This ensures that we meet the highest standards of quality and regulatory compliance. Many of the protocols and techniques we use were developed in collaboration with Dr. Bill Beal and other researchers at Virginia Tech, furthering the cutting-edge science that drives our work.

We’re here to answer any questions you may have and help you take your operation to the next level. Get in touch with us today via email or phone to schedule your service!
