Discuss terms of the agreement with your agent and get them on paper before you begin looking at horses. Standard commissions range between 10 percent and 15 percent and may apply to both the buyer's and seller's agents. Agree ahead of time what your budget will be and if the commission must be included in your budget.
There are no strict education requirements to become a breeder. Individuals can learn the scientific concepts and techniques involved in breeding by completing an animal science bachelor's degree program. Relevant coursework includes animal nutrition, genetics, husbandry, and horse management.
While it is not a title document like a vehicle title, a Horse Bill of Sale is essential for both the buyer and seller to protect their interests and provide a record of the horse's ownership transfer.
A horse bill of sale may detail the horse's name, the size of the horse, its gender, its lineage, markings, colors, and other physical features. This type of bill of sale may also include information about breeding the horse or any warranties if the horse is expected to produce young.
Horses are seasonal breeders, usually cycling from late spring to early fall each year. During the colder months of the year, when the days are shorter, mares will be in the anestrus, or non-cycling phase and the ovaries will be small; mares will not be fertile or capable of breeding during this period.
A mare's reproductive system is affected by the seasons. Daylight is the controlling factor that causes a mare to come into heat in early spring. Breeding season kicks off in mid-February and runs through early June in the Northern hemisphere.
The estrous cycle in most mares starts to normalize in late April or early May until August - the normal breeding season for horses. During this time, the mare will have an estrous cycle of 21 days (±3 days). The estrous cycle is composed of two phases: the estrous phase (in heat) and the diestrous phase (out of heat).
Like cats, mare cycle during periods of long daylight length. This is thought to be an evolutionary development to ensure that the mare will give birth at the most hospitable time, this being in Spring. Given these factors, a mare can only have one pregnancy a year and will usually only have one foal in a given year.
