Embryo Transfer
Embryo Transfer is an assisted reproductive technology that allows a breeder to flush embryos from a valuable mare and transfer them into recipient mares that carry the pregnancy and raise the foal until weaning.

The Advantages of Embryo Transfer
* A donor mare can continue to compete while producing foals.
* A donor mare can produce several foals per year.
* Mares that are unable to carry a foal due to an injury can produce foals.
 
 
 

Stallion Promotion.   Dr. Anderson can offer stallion promotion materials and web site design.


Recipient Mares for Lease:
 
We offer young, healthy mares for lease.  Several options are available for breeders.
 
OPTION A.  Embryos can be flushed from your mare and transported to Maple Crest for transfer into one of our recipients.
OPTION B.  Our donor mares can be leased for the production of embryos.  Our recipients are available for carrying the foals, or you may select a commercial recipient herd.  The advantage of this option is that YOU select the stallion for one of our donor mares.
OPTION C. A pregnant recipient mare carrying an embryo from one of our donor mares can be leased if you purchase an embryo.
