Equine Artificial Insemination

We're a BEVA (British Equine Veterinary Association) approved AI practice for chilled & frozen semen

Our vets have further training in equine artificial insemination.

 

Our facilities allow us to have more mares in the clinic for artificial insemination as we have ten additional stables and the paddocks are now available again for mare and young stock grazing.

 

Mares stay at the clinic for a few days around the time of ovulation to allow frequent ultrasound examinations ensuring that the mare will be inseminated at the optimum time.

 

Artificial insemination with chilled semen – £400 inc VAT per cycle

 

Artificial insemination with frozen semen – £495 inc VAT per cycle
