Lingh and Edward
“To put Lingh’s 2009 breeding performance in clear perspective: he produced last year an excellent 87.5% pregnancy rate. Only a few mares of the whole group he covered did not get pregnant as expected. Exciting and encouraging too for Lingh breeders is the fact that many of the mares that are now in foal are older dressage mares that were never bred before. It’s nice to be able to say that Lingh made a lot of breeders very happy this year! When he got a cold and his motility dropped to a level that Flyinge reported was no longer acceptable to ship to his large number of booked mares, Flyinge asked mare owners to ship their mares in to Flyinge for breeding. At this time, nine mares were bred at Flyinge and 9 got pregnant at Flyinge. Flyinge also managed to ship off a few doses of cooled semen to 10 mares in Sweden during this time and of those 10 mares, 8 are pregnant. We lost most of the April and May bookings to these circumstances. That was LAST YEAR ! Lingh is happier and healthier than ever, and is waiting for his mares ! :-))
Write to me at info@offieldfarms.com if you have questions or concerns. I can have you speak directly with Susanne Hassler or Karl Henrik-Heimdahl about your mare, her reproductive health and if Lingh is a good match.
The best advice I can give for mare owners outside the Scandic area is to breed to Lingh early in the spring season. The new Export Station can accommodate those early requests easily. I am looking forward to seeing the new foals this spring. Stay tuned !“
