Generally, assuming a filly is healthy and on a good plan of nutrition, she can be bred as early as two years of age, although many breeders suggest waiting until three years of age. Mares can continue to produce foals well into their late teens or early to mid 20's.
On average, however, males become fertile after six months of age and reach full sexual maturity by 12 to 15 months.
Colts -occasionally- can be fertile enough to get a mare pregnant at 6 months old. However, the majority will certainly be able to get a mare pregnant from 10-14 months of age. However, there are never any hard and fast rules in equine repro...
Most veterinarians agree the ideal time to castrate is between 6-12 months of age, but one must first ensure two testicles are present. Presence of only one testicle in the scrotum could indicate a condition known as cryptorchidism.
Breeders and managers can pursue a degree in equine science or animal science, but employers often accept experience in the industry instead of a degree. Entry-level positions include grooms positions and internships in the breeding industry.
If the young horse has done well on the racetrack during his 2- and 3-year-old years, for instance, he may begin breeding mares as a 4-year-old. Before entering the breeding shed, he needs some re-training, a fertility evaluation, and some time to refocus on his new job and prepare for his first breeding season.
Stallions will typically remain fertile beyond their 20th year of age. The age that stallions stop producing spermatozoa will vary between stallions. It is important that semen is routinely evaluated on all stallions, especially when using older stallions because of the expected decrease of semen production with age.
Often stallions collect on a schedule (e.g. Monday, Wednesday and Friday). Some stallions may collect any day they are needed. Paint and quarter horse stallions commonly collect every other day from February 15 to July 15.
Mature stallions can breed two or three mares a day throughout a long breeding season and maintain a good level of fertility, but young stallions should not be expected to handle this level of work.
