Stallion: A Breeding Guide For Owners & Handlers
by: McCall, James
Dr. McCall uses humorous anecdotes to highlight information that will
be of interest not only to stallion owners but also to breeding shed personnel,
trainers, farm managers and students of the horse. Broodmare owners as
well will gain an understanding of what should occur at the farm to which
they send their mares. The Stallion is truly an exceptional reference
because Dr. McCall addresses topics that are often overlooked in books
on breeding, including: collecting, handling and storing semen; disciplining
and handling the stallion; dealing with unusual and unacceptable behavior;
pasture breeding; the reproductive system of the stallion, including anatomy,
physiology, fertility, and semen output; nutrition; off-season management;
how to market the Thoroughbred or racing-type stallion and how to market
the stock horse or show horse-type stallion. Dr. McCall also takes into
account the economics and legalities involved in the breeding shed in
his discussion of evaluation, appraisal and pricing of stallions. An appendix
provides sample contracts commonly associated with stallions such as stallion
lease agreements, stallion service contracts and stallion syndication
agreements. 228 pgs
