I have a 12 year old mare, a regular breeder, currently in foal by AI as she has developed a serious dislike of journeys more than three or four miles by box following an accident. Where can I get a list of stallions who supply preferably chilled semen, otherwise frozen, with a good fertility record. I rather fancy a black. Luckily I have an experienced vet. DOGAROO

| If you get any fertility percentages please let us know. It may be that if a mare gets in foal eventually, it is counted as 'fertile'. a more useful measure might be how many cycles it took to reach that result. |

Thats a very good question 
I'd be interested in knowing if such a list exists also, been toying with AI idea too.
Also who recommends the most experienced AI vets easily accessible in the north??
Dogaroo does your vet do a lot of AI's ?

| It's not just the stallion's fertility that you need to worry about. A fall in motility can be caused by poor collection and freezing processes. I would recommend Twemlows and there is a lot of info on their website http://www.twemlows.co.uk |

Twemlows and the Matson family are 1st class and very approachable, but it is quite a journey to get there, along very narrow country lanes!! We have an excellent Vet in Leicesteshire who is brilliant at AI'ing!

| Luckily there are at least two super vets for AI near me and the last two mares I have had AI'd held first cycle but they did have to be resident with the vet. I would appreciate it if anyone owning a stallion who provides semen for AL could contact me with details of fees, fertility etc. Also if anyone with a bit of spare time would like to offer to hold a list of suitable stallions it would save the very overworked office at Ramsbury. If no offers I suppose I could do it! |

I know Halsdon Arabians are able to offer alot of fresh, chilled and frozen semen and they have the 2 blacks Simeon Sadik and Ferryt. Another black stallion is So Black Al Arabi and he is available via frozen semen. I also see that R Ali Bey has frozen semen normally for oversea users, but maybe if you can bend Anns arm, you may have luck?
