Trait Breton horse

Through the French National Stud - which is actually several studs. I need to look up the name but in Brittany, they used to have Breton stallions.

I will ask but won't reply till Monday.
 
Hello again,

I have a reply from Director of National Stud, he has forwarded your request to THE person for Trait Breton stud book. I will keep you informed. It does take time for things to work their way through.
 
I have a nice friendly reply from the Syndicate who preserve the Breton. Can you pm me your email address and I will forward details.

It seems this person speaks some English but always best to keep language simple. They want to know if you have a preference for height colour etc.

If you have any problems you can ask me again.
 
I have emailed you. Found four stallions. As a Rare Breed breeder (500 CB's and only 5,000 Shagya's worldwide) I have a lot of enthusiasm for your project.

Please keep all of us informed of your progress. Good luck.
 
hi my name is tracie and I own a Breton mare and we are in the process of having her inseminated with a stallion at the national stud in france,like you I found there is no stallion in uk so ai is the only way to go and it is easy to sort once you know what your doing,if you would like any advice or just a chat about anything I would love to hear from another Breton owner
 
I wondered if anyone on here may know how we could locate a Trait Breton stallion at stud?? There dont seem to be any in the Uk...would we have to use AI??
Thanks in advance x

Hi, I'm new here so I apologise if I'm supposed to do a welcome first. I came across your thread. I can assure you that there is at least one Trait Breton breeding stallion in England because I own him, and have done so for over 6 years. He is rising 7 and I had him imported from France. He is an amazing gentle guy. I'm sorry you've had such a hard time finding one, I assume you have had your mare covered by now but I thought I would say 'Hello!' for future reference.

I hope you guys get together. I am a great fan of all heavy horses, whichever side of the Channel. If you manage a mating and foal, don't forget to post.
 
Trait Breton needs to get a higher post count before the PM function becomes available to them. Get posting TB! :D

ETA - when you are allowed to PM, click on the name of the person you want to PM (on the left of their post) and some options come up in a little box. 'Private message' should be one of the options and if you click on it, it should take you to a page to compose your PM to that person. If you get a PM, it will show that you have a 'notification' on the top right of the forum. I use the desktop version of the forum though, it might be different on a phone.

What a mine of information you are!! I had no idea you needed x pm's to make it work. Not a problem for me I am a forum addict.
 
Hi, sorry for any delay in getting back to you on this. I've been in and out of hospital after a car accident. I have spinal issues and as a result I can no longer keep all of my horses this includes my beautiful beloved Trait Breton. He will probably be going up for sale later in the year. It's quite heartbreaking and an emotional time for me right now. Therefore, I am not going to be offering him out at stud this year. I'm sorry about this. I'm sure any new owner would be more than likely to use him for covering mares so I will keep you informed, if I can.
