    What to do with him?-Injured stallion

    We have a superbly bred Oldenburg, rising 5 jumping stallion who is AES registered. Last year he had an accident out riding and not boring you with all the details the vets eventually decided he needs time to mature and see if he comes right, preferably in a field. He has been living out the...

    Embryo Transfers, a way forward?

    I am too busy to be doing this but very quickly, this is what we have experienced. Over the last 5 years we have carried out here approx 11 ET flushes which have resulted in 3 live foals. Best results are with fresh , 2 flushes and 2 foals. Then chilled 3 flushes, 3 embryos but 1 live foal. 6...

    Is there a market for broodmares at the moment?

    Dressage mare, British bred where are they?

    My friend is looking for a mare to dressage with, ideally 3 or 4, must be attractive and between 15.1 to 16.1 absolute maximum (she is small). It must be well bred, no dodgy mother lines and have perfect conformation (she is in the veterinary profession). It must move well and have a good hind...

    What 'Should' I Expect To pay?

    I have to say that unfortunately from a breeders point of view that horses tend to be worth no more as a yearling or a 2 year old than they were as a foal. If the foal is valued correctly it will sell if the quality is right. If it has to be kept a year because it did not sell for whatever...

    Nail test update

    Just thought I would update you on our nail test results. Yes we are professional breeders but love all things like this, so could not resist trying this on our mares and I am suprised by the results! We have 7 foals born so far out of 14. One mare unfortunately aborted and we did have that one...

    Pictures of Balou du Rouet offspring

    We are complete fans of Balou. Have bred 5 now with our latest 2 days old and another due at the end of May. They all jump and move very well and all very good temperaments, just one filly a bit nervous. He suits a bigger mare with plenty of blood best as can produce a bit small sometimes.

    If buying a foal/youngster would the fact that it was grey put you off ?

    We have six Grey mares and several grey youngsters and already a grey foal this year. We love them and so I hope everyone else does too.

    Photos - Expo

    Just to save any more confusion - Lord Luis was not there, the photos on here are not of him, I don't know which stallion it is as we did not go. I have asked Whizz to change the heading.

    Diarado - 2009 Hot Topic

    Have just seen him at the stallion show and he is definitely worth the hype. Awesome under saddle over a fence and is so athletic. He is not big and is very blood and does throw small so only use on big mares who need the blood. We have a now yearling filly who is out of a very big mare and is...

    Lactational Anoestrous

    We have a mare too and she foaled 14th Feb and has not been in season since. Been on Regumate once and nothing so back on it again. If there is anything else we can try would be also be really interested to hear as never heard of the above drugs. What are they and how do they work?
