Absolutely! We have both fresh cooled and frozen semen available for shipping. Artie has fantastic semen quality; his initial total motility is usually greater than 90% (85% total motility at 24 hours and 84% at 48 hours). He also has above average semen concentration and good morphology. He often gets mares pregnant on the first shipment. The semen is being collected, cooled and shipped by the world renowned Colorado State University Equine Reproductive Lab so you can rest assured that the semen will arrive to you in the best condition possible.

No, we use the highest quality disposable containers available on the market today (and recommended by the CSU-ERL), assuring you that the semen will arrive as well protected as if it was shipped in a permanent container but without the added hassle (and expense) of having to return the container to us!

Yes, Artie has export approved frozen semen already collected, stored and ready to be shipped.

Artie was a 75% color producer in 2008. We do provide a 100% color guarantee, for details refer to our Breeding Contract.

Artie can be collected in the morning and horse show in the afternoon. He is a gentleman to be around and his favorite treat is peppermints. His babies are quiet minded and easy to handle, often being started and maintained by amateurs.

Testimonials:

“I met Artie at the Congress a couple of years ago and was delighted to have an opportunity to see him and pet him in person and what a regal gentleman he is!”

“I have an Artie foal and we love her. She is very smart, and is so quiet. Nothing phases her and she takes everything in stride.”

Certainly, if you are going to be in the Fort Collins area; give us a call to set up a time to come and meet him. Artie loves visitors (as long as you remember to bring peppermints).
