Breeding Costs

 Here's a list of typical costs if you were to breed to our stallion. (updated 2019 for Western Montana near Missoula)
  • Stud Fee: $500
  • Mare Care: $10/day, $300/month - the mare typically stays here a little less than a month but can stay much shorter or much longer times. It's a good estimate to assume it will require 1 month of board, but be ready for more if she doesn't take on the first try. 
  • Pre-Breeding Vet Exam:
  • STD Test:
  • Pregnancy Check:
  • Transport:
​
Other common expenses include:
  • multiple pregnancy checks if the mare doesn't get pregnant on the first try
  • additional ultra sound vet exams if the mare does not come into heat in a normal way and we must determine why
  • additional mare care if the mare doesn't get pregnant on the first try and must stay longer
  • additional transport costs if the mare has to be re-bred at some point

If you are breeding to our stallion, all additional expenses will be checked out with you before they are incurred.
