Breeding starts with the wellbeing of the MoMs.

Mares are the cornerstone of breeding. We keep the MoMs surrounded by the best care, in the vast and sunny fields of Northern Italy on a self-managed property. The mediterranean climate allows year round grazing and the large individual stables with spacious paddocks give the equine athletes the comfort they deserve.

Is your mare a MoM?

Frequently asked questions

What is a frozen embryo?

An embryo is the result of the successful fertilisation of a female ovum or egg and a male sperm cell. A veterinarian collects an ovum from the mare using the OPU (Ovum Pick Up) technique. Then a sperm cell is injected into the ovum under very strict conditions in a laboratory, using specialised microscopic techniques. After approximately 7 days, the success of this fertilisation is determined and if successful, the embryo is frozen to a temperature of -⁠197°C with liquid nitrogen.

What is ICSI?

ICSI is the abbreviation for Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection, meaning that a sperm is injected directly into an egg to achieve fertilisation.

Where are MoM embryos located?

MoM embryos are stored in two locations. The first is in Italy, where the mares and Avantea are located. The embryos are subsequently transported to the ‘De Morette’ Equine Reproduction Centre in Belgium. This reproduction centre complies with all European regulations and is certified for the storage of frozen embryos. From there, the embryos are shipped to one of the 18 certified implantation centers. We also have a limited stock in Brazil, Argentina and the US.

How can I have my MoM embryo implanted?

We take care of the entire implantation procedure in one of the by MoM certified implantation centers across the world.
