Charlie

This beautiful young shire gelding is coming along very nicely, he has only been sat on 4 times at the point this photo was taken of him.  He is a very nice 'person' to be around and has amazed us with his willingness to learn and accept what is put in front of him.  Charlie will make a great horse for around home and the show ring.

AI Services

We are fully qualified AI Technicians and can offer a range of services in breeding season.

Being able to collect our own stallions and inseminate mares has made life a lot easier for ourselves and for mare owners having the option of our stallions if you are hundreds of miles away.  This has also seen a huge increase with our success rates of getting mares pregnant.

Whether you want to keep your mare in the comfort of her own paddock, or if you want a hassle free send you mare and let us do all the work for you until heartbeat scan...  Or any in-between variable, then we offer it all.

On yard we offer live cover and insemination at your choice or our discretion.  When we ship semen we ask for as much notice as possible, keep us in the loop when you are scanning your mare etc.

We collect our stallion as close to post office closing as possible and we always ship guaranteed 9am next day delivery.  Please note we have not found a delivery service that work on a Sunday, meaning we cant ship semen on a Saturday for Sunday or on Sunday for Monday.
