FAQ
Ed. The cost for the semen is typically $16 per straw.
Service fees can range from a small amount for a local male animal of unknown breeding to several hundred thousand dollars for the right to breed a champion Thoroughbred race horse such as Storm Cat, who has earned stud fees of up to US $500,000.
Regardless of whether you send your mare to a veterinary clinic to be bred, or your veterinarian comes to your farm to do the job, it's typically going to cost anywhere from $300 to more than $600 per estrus cycle, depending on semen type: cooled or frozen (the latter process can be slightly more expensive).
A stallion is bred or semen collected once per day for 10 days. The semen collected on day 10 is then an estimate of daily sperm production. If the number of sperm on day 10 is several billion then the limiting factor is likely his willingness to breed.
Stallions should usually not mate more than three times a day, McGladdery says, to help prevent fatigue and reduced semen quality. So for many breeders, especially in the Thoroughbred market, that means the mare gets bred just once per cycle.
Price Range: Between $7,000 and $100,000. Expect a well-trained show horse to cost about $40,000, with breeding stallions commanding substantially higher prices.
The limit of the number of mares the stallion could breed on a day would then be the number of ejaculates with at least 500 million motile sperm present in them. When a stallion is used for pasture breeding, we know that a stallion will mate much more than 2 or 3 times per day.
A Stud Fee is the price charged by a farm or breeder for the right to mate your broodmare to their stallion, in return, the owner of the mare gets to keep the foal or baby.This practice actually limits the number of offspring any single stallion can have.
Collection Fees The cost generally ranges from $75 to $250 per collection. Some stallion owners charge an additional surcharge of as much as $50 if they receive less than 24 hours notice for a collection.
