Equine Artificial Insemination Packages

We offer a range of artificial insemination (AI) packages at competitive, all-inclusive rates to support your mare through the breeding process. Each package includes all routine veterinary work required to help achieve pregnancy, with no hidden charges such as additional ‘in foal’ fees.

All packages must be paid in full before any work is carried out. If you prefer not to select a package, we also offer the option to pay for individual procedures, which are billed retrospectively at the end of each fortnight. Discounts are available for multiple mares kept at the same premises, and visit fees can be provided upon request. Our pricing is fully transparent, giving you peace of mind with no unexpected extras.

Embryo Transfer Prices

To be used in conjunction with an AI package.
To complement our artificial insemination (AI) packages, West Ridge Equine is proud to offer a bespoke embryo transfer service. Recognised as one of the leading stud veterinary providers in the South West, our team is committed to supporting successful breeding outcomes with advanced reproductive techniques.

Embryo transfer is ideal for owners wishing to breed from a talented or high-value mare that is still actively competing and unable to carry a foal. It also provides a valuable option for preserving desirable bloodlines, whether you’re planning to sell the mare or if she is unable to safely carry a pregnancy herself.

This service is offered on a case-by-case basis, with personalised care tailored to each mare’s needs. For further information or to discuss suitability, please contact our stud vet:

Hannah Dennis, on 01363 83030.
