Semen marketed through Equine AI originates from Studs of international reputation and with whom we have worked for several years.

If you would like us to source frozen or chilled semen from a stallion not on our list, we would aim to ascertain the following information:

1. Availability of frozen semen.

2. Price structure of frozen semen (per dose or per pregnancy, and how many doses are provided).

3. Quality of frozen semen:

•         number and size of straws per dose.
•         progressive motilty.
•         concentration.
•         total live sperm per dose.
•         reported conception rates.

4. Health status of frozen semen and the supply of a valid export Health Certificate.

5. Availability of chilled semen.

6. Price structure of chilled semen.

7. Health status of chilled semen and the ability to provide an original Health Certificate.

In addition, one of our stud veterinary surgeons will discuss the suitability of your mare for artificial insemination and realistic conception rates to be expected.

To obtain this information is time consuming , but essential in order to get the best chance of a successful outcome.

The cost for our Stallion Sourcing Service is £75 + vat – to be paid in advance of enquiries being made.
