All breeders who utilise the services of Zuchthof Klatte accept the following conditions as well as the covering and insemination conditions of the respective organisations.
I. CHILLED SEMEN
Semen orders for stallions kept at the Klatte farm must be placed by 10 a.m.!
Semen orders for stallions not kept at the Klatte farm (Cooper, Vittorio) must be placed by 10 a.m. on the previous day.
When placing semen orders, please provide the following details:
• Full address of the owner of the mare, invoice recipient, location of mare and the dispatch address
• Inseminating vet with full address
• Mare details with 15-digit UELN number
• Desired stallion
• Breeding organisation
The covering certifi cate should be submitted at/before the first cover.
A. Conditions for Germany, Austria, the Netherlands and Belgium
Cover fee
For the stallions Armitage, Chlodwig, Collado, Cooper, Cornet's Prinz, Dr. Doolittle, Farewell III, Uptown und Vittorio, a split cover fee applies. For these stallions a deposit of 300 EUR is du before the fi rst cover. Should no new semen order be placed after 30 days, the breeder/client will be invoiced for the remaining cover fee (see cover fee for the respective stallion). Any breeder/client who has not provided veterinary certifi cation of the non-pregnant mare will be invoiced for the remaining cover fee no later than 15 September 2012. A barren mare can only be considered as such if veterinary certifi cation has been provided!
For all other stallions, the conditions on the respective stallion pages apply.
The cover fees stated are fi nal prices, inclusive of VAT. If two or more mares are being inseminated, we offer more attractive conditions. For more detailed information, do not hesitate to get in touch with us. Vouchers must be handed in before the fi rst order; otherwise they are no longer valid!
Barren mares
Should a mare remain barren throughout the cover year, the deposit remains valid for the following season, on the condition that veterinary certifi cation has been shown to us by 15 September of each year. If the stallion is changed, the stallion last used is the one for which you will be invoiced. If a mare fails to conceive in the second year, a new deposit of 300 EUR will be due.
B. Conditions exclusively for Germany, Austria, the Netherlands and Belgium
Cover fee and invoicing
Semen will only be dispatched if payment has been received in advance for the full cover fee, plus two lots of dispatch costs á 130 EUR and two veterinary certifi cates á 20 EUR. We reserve the right to issue invoices for any additional costs incurred for dispatching semen.
Barren mares
Should a mare not conceive in a cover year, the option exists to inseminate the mare in the following cover season upon submission of a veterinary certifi cate (subject to the availability of a stallion).
Insemination will only be offered free of charge the following season if the mare is made available for insemination again before 1 April; otherwise an invoice for 50% of the cover fee will be issued. If the mare is swapped, an invoice for 50% of the cover fee will also be issued. If the cover fee rises or the stallion is swapped for another one with a higher cover fee, the difference will be invoiced. If a stallion is swapped to one with a lower cover fee, no refunds will be given.
C. Service
Sperm dispatch
Sperm dispatch costs must be met by the owner of the mare. All of the costs for sperm consignments sent from our third-party stallions to the Klatte facilities and to the place where the mare is located will also be passed on to the owner of the mare by Zuchthof Klatte.
Veterinary certification for sperm consignments sent abroad
For each sperm consignment sent abroad, we will charge 20 EUR for issuing the necessary certifi cation (for Cooper, the fee is 40 EUR). If an original certifi cate is required (e.g. for England and Switzerland), another 20 EUR will be charged for the associated additional expense.
Guest mares
Pastures (from May) and boxes are available. Boarding fees are 12 EUR per day/mare, pasture fees are 8 EUR per day/mare. Horses board at the owner’s own risk; however, the owner of the stallion is liable for any damages caused by them or their assistants that are due to wilful or gross negligence.
Gynaecological health check
Every day at 11 a.m., except on Sundays and bank holidays, a health check is performed by the veterinary surgeon Alexandra Klatte. We charge 15 EUR for a gynaecological ultrasound scan (follicular check). For stabled mares, we offer an examination package for each horse period. This costs 60 EUR for fresh inseminations and 100 EUR for deep-frozen inseminations. Any medication, treatment or douches will be invoiced separately.
We are also happy to take on the complete organisation of insemination with stallions from other facilities. Get in touch with us if you are interested.
Zuchthof Klatte assumes no liability for insemination carried out outside our facilities.
Visiting hours
Visiting hours are between 10 a.m. and 12 noon and between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. on weekdays, or by prior arrangement. On Sunday and bank holidays we ask you to visit our stables in the morning.
General
The cover season is limited to the period between 15 February and 15 August.
The place of fulfilment and place of jurisdiction is Lastrup/Cloppenburg.
Availability of stallions
No cover fee can be claimed if:
• there is a pause caused by injury
• the stallion is sold during the cover period
• the stallion is participating in tournaments
However, the fee will be charged to another stallion in the Zuchthof Klatte stables (this does not apply to deep-frozen sperm). If the option exists to fall back on the deep-frozen sperm of the unavailable stallion, the mare can be brought the Klatte facilities.
II. DEEP-FROZEN SEMEN
Deep-frozen sperm is only dispatched if payment has been received in advance. Deep-frozen sperm is sold by the portion. One portion consists of insemination from a number of pipettes on the basis of the calculation during the freezing process. Deep-frozen sperm is used at the risk of the owner/seller of the mare. No claims for damages may be made against Zuchthof Klatte.
We charge 100 EUR per stallion for processing the insemination, issuing a veterinary certifi cate and dispatching the container with liquid nitrogen. This fee also includes the hire charge for a container. Should the container not be returned within eight days of receiving it (address: Zuchthof Klatte, Rossegarden 5, 49688 Lastrup, Germany), Zuchthof Klatte reserves the right to charge 1,200 EUR for a lost container.
