A. Most yearlings and two-year-olds can and will breed under good circumstances.
Live cover breeding refers to the natural process where a stallion and mare are brought together to mate without any Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART). It contrasts with artificial insemination, where semen is collected from the stallion and then introduced into the mare's uterus.
With live cover, two horses are brought together and physically bred to each other. The benefits of live cover are that it requires less equipment, the sire is guaranteed, and the breed cannot be dominated by a few stallions.
A STALLION SERvICE REPORT must be filed prior to midnight, january 15 of the following year by the recorded owner or recorded lessee at the time of exposure or use of a registered stallion that was exposed to or whose semen was used to inseminate a registered mare anytime during the preceding twelve (12) consecutive ...
To check for normal foal behavior, Delvescovo applies the “one, two, three” rule: Foals should be standing within one hour. Within two hours, the foal should be nursing and the mare passing the placenta. Foals should be passing meconium (their first feces) within around three hours.
The selection process involves evaluating the stallion's conformation, pedigree, performance record, temperament, and genetic traits to ensure that he is well-suited to contribute positively to improving and preserving the Arabian breed.
So what makes a good broodmare? Look closely at the mare's conformation – she should be balanced from back to front, with structural correctness and everything in proportion, as well as good feet, bone and girth. Consider her temperament, trainability and rideability, and what you want her offspring to inherit.
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.
