Stud Medicine

Find out more about our stud medicine service

The Sussex Equine Stud Team have many years of stud experience.

 

 

Together they cover all aspects of equine stud medicine, including artificial insemination (AI), embryo transfer (ET), and ovum pickup (OPU), as well as care of the pregnant mare and her foal. From stud farms in the practice catchment area or your home yard, mares can be inseminated or ‘walked in’ to stallions throughout the country. The team are backed up by an on site CEM (HBLB accredited) laboratory that allows pre-breeding samples or bloods to be examined rapidly.

The four stud vets cover a stud-specific out of hours rota providing an emergency service for all breeding related emergencies during the stud season (January to September).

 

This allows a 24-hour rapid response to foaling mares and sick foals, as well as a dedicated stud vet to attend your mare should she require insemination or post service treatment on a weekend.

 

Stallion semen collection can be arranged at the hospital alongside dummy training. Semen can be shipped chilled throughout the UK. The hospital facilities are licensed for OPU.

 

We can arrange collection and shipment of oocytes to any lab on the European continent.

If you are interested in any aspect of breeding, contact the practice on 01903 883050 or email us info@sussexequine.co.uk.
