Pacific Crest Equine provides comprehensive reproductive services to help our clients reach their breeding goals. We offer services for both mares and stallions in our new breeding center.
Mare Management
Every year we provide breeding services and fertility management to a large number of mares. We are equipped with both in hospital and portable ultrasound machines to evaluate mares both in the reproductive center and in the field. Below are some of the mare reproductive services we offer:
Breeding soundness examinations: reproductive tract ultrasonography, uterine culture and biopsies, videoendoscopy, hormone assays and therapy
Artificial insemination: fresh, cooled or frozen semen
Sub-fertile mare management: hormonal therapy, uterine lavage, uterine infusions, and laser endometrial cyst reduction.
Pregnancy management: ultrasonic pregnancy diagnosis and staging twin reductions, transabdominal fetal monitoring, and ultrasonic placental evaluation.
Embryo transfers: embryo harvesting and non-surgical implantation procedures or embryo shipping
Reproductive surgery: caslicks, rectal-vaginal tear reconstruction, and caesarian sections.
Mare owners can choose the option of large 12x24 shaving or sand stalls or pasture herd turnout.
Stallion Management
Our reproductive center also offers stallion breeding services. Pacific Crest is able to stand stallions at our facility and assist owners in selecting a stallion management plan and breeding program. We offer owners the choice of fresh, cooled/shipped or frozen semen breeding options. Our program includes collection, analysis with sperm counter, sperm morphology and motility evaluation, extender evaluation, and freezing and storage. We can train novice stallions to the phantom and can manage sub-fertile stallions.
