With our Gypsy Vanner Horse Embryo Program we’ve been able to share the wealth of our great foundation genetics with people throughout the world.
If you are looking for an affordable option to obtain the Vanner Horse of your dreams, consider our Embryo Transfer Program. We have twenty years of experience with this process and can walk you through the procedure.
Basically, this is how it works —
- You choose the sire and dam of your foal, subject to our approval of that genetic crossing.
- Once you have made your choice, we will breed the mare you’ve chosen to your selected stallion.
- At the appropriate time (~7 days later) we will flush the embryo and then place it inside the uterus of a recipient mare.
- At 60 days post confirmed pregnancy the mare may be transferred to the location of your choice for her gestation period, which is approximately 11 months.
- You will be responsible for the transport, prenatal care throughout her pregnancy and any professional foaling service.
- You will be responsible for shipping the mare back to Ocala if you choose to care for her at your facility.
- We do offer an option to keep and care for your leased mare here at Gypsy Gold at $17.50 per day pre foaling and $22.50 per day for mare and foal until weaned at approximately 6 months of age.
- Babies are handled weekly and trained to lead.
- After the foal is safely weaned, you can transport your Gypsy Vanner foal home or to your boarding or training barn.
