Breeding conditions
I. General
Every owner of a mare who uses the stallions of our stud farm acknowledges that he has taken note of the following general mating conditions.
The breeding season runs from March 15, 2023 to August 15, 2023. You are always welcome to visit the stud farm after making an appointment by telephone.
II. Order
Orders for semen must be placed in advance and/or at the latest before 9am on the day itself via our website (www.stoeterijmolenhof.be), by mail (info@stoeterijmolenhof.be) or by phone (+32 477 55 55 09). A confirmation is always sent. If you have not received a confirmation, please contact us again.
When ordering semen, the following information must be delivered to the stud farm:
- The name of the desired stallion
- The name of the mare and also a copy of the original studbook paper for administration purposes
- The name, full address and telephone number of the owner/responsible of the mare
- The full delivery address if this is different from the address of the owner
The semen can be picked up after ordering or can be sent by courier. Transportation costs are always the responsibility of the mare owner.
III. Payment
After the first insemination you will receive an advance invoice of 250€ on the stud fee. A dose for the next heat cycle can only be obtained after the advance payment has been done. If the mare is pregnant on October 1st, the rest of the stud fee will be paid upon receipt of the invoice for obtaining a stud certificate.
After payment of the full stud fee, we provide a live foal guarantee so in case of rejection or a dead foal, you may re-order semen for that mare without paying additional stud fees.
If the mare is not pregnant, semen from the stallion or another stallion with the same fee may be ordered the following year without a new payment. For a stallion with a more expensive rate, you pay the difference of the fee.
For multiple mares, you will receive a 10% discount starting with the second mare.
IV. Stabling
It’s possible to stable your mare for 10 €/day (excl. 21%VAT). However, Stoeterij Molenhof accepts no liability whatsoever for illness, injury or damage. If necessary, we will call upon our veterinarian, even if the owner cannot be reached. Our team will take the best possible care of the well-being of your animal(s). Veterinary costs related to, among other things, sensing and scanning are at the expense of the mare owner (excl. 21% VAT). We politely ask you to contact us in advance and make proper arrangements as to date and time.
