Female Horse Stud Horse

Female Horse Stud Horse. Horse stud is one important factor that will determine the future of horse breeding. Usually a good male will produce offspring are good also. One way to choose a good stud is to see the certificate. From here can be traced history.

Besides using the data contained in the certificate, in choosing male fertility need to be examined. Fertility rates should be entitled to choose is the value of 60%. If the fertility rate below 50%, then the fertility rate is relatively small.

In contrast to the Various Types of Horse Sex explains about the type of horse.
