List of current vaccinations verified by your veterinarian, with the following mandatory vaccinations current and at least 14 days prior to arrival: Eastern and Western Encephalitis; Tetanus; Rhinopneumonitis; Influenza; West Nile; Strangles.
We have purchased a farm that has never had horses on it. Therefore, there are no strangles or any other problems living on the property associated with so many breeding farms. If all horses are vaccinated with the above mentioned, then we can control the problems associated with on farm mares during breeding season and reduce the risk for YOUR mare and/or baby. Rest assured that we are very serious about keeping horses healthy and we respectfully request your assistance. This is for the protection and health of your mare, so please abide by these requirements. No mare will be allowed off the trailer without this documentation.
~A negative uterine culture is required for all maiden and barren mares
~All horses should be in good physical condition (body and hoof)
~A history of your mare's past reproduction record filled out with the breeding contract.
~Please note HYPP status and if symptomatic
~A list of all medications your mare is currently on
~Please provide insurance information on your mare if applicable
All required work not done prior to arrival will be completed on farm and charged accordingly.
Fees:
We do not charge a collection fee if your mare does not settle the first time on farm. That cost is included in the breeding fee, regardless of the number of cycles. We do, however, charge a $250 collection fee for each additional shipment of semen and all shipments are plus shipping costs.
All on farm re-breeds and futurity breedings will be charged a $400 chute fee.
Flex Care:
Flex Care is a new approach to caring for your mare. There are times when it is best for her and her foal to be outside with the other mares. They stay healthy and happy in that situation. There are other times, for our management requirements, that we need them in a stall to tease, breed, check, etc. If we can move your mare where we need her and where it is best for her, we can keep the costs down and pass those savings on to you. The flex care program allows us this opportunity. If you want your mare in a stall, and not outside with others, we can accommodate your request. It does cost us more and we must pass those costs on.
$14/day for dry mares
$16/day for wet mares
$20/day for any mare that requires stall only
$275/month for year-round mare care in the pasture (mares bred to one of our stallions)
We are certain you will enjoy your P5 experience and our Kentucky hospitality! Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have about your mare and/or foal.
