Seasonal and Year Round Mare Care and Foaling Services

Mare Management

First Prize Dash

Royal Vista Southwest accepts embryo donor mares to be bred with cooled or frozen semen as well as mares to be bred and carry their own foals. A fixed fee is charged per cycle which includes all palpations and ultrasound exams.
Several boarding choices are available. Wet mares have stalls under lights with turn out in grass paddocks. The mares and foals are led to their stalls in the evening and led to the paddocks in the morning. Dry mares have stalls under lights and are turned out in small groups during the day. We offer private care with turn out as requested. We can care for your show or race mare as necessary.
Royal Vista Southwest will provide seasonal care for your mare as well as year round care at reduced rates if requested.

Foaling Services

Royal Vista Southwest operates a foaling program with attention given to all details. Twenty-four hour observation is provided for all late term mares. Trained foaling attendants prepare the mare for foaling and ascertain correct fetal position as soon as her water breaks. Any abnormalities receive the immediate attention of the onsite veterinarian. New foals receive umbilical care, enemas, and imprinting. The mare's colostrum is checked for level of antibodies. Additional banked colostrum is given to the foal if the mare's level is low. The foal is observed for adequate nursing and good health. A blood test (IgG) is performed on the foal at 18 hours of age to determine if adequate levels of antibodies were received from the colostrum. The foals are halter broke and led within a few days of birth..
