Varian Arabians is committed to you, the breeder, to work with you to meet your needs and achieve your goals in breeding for the best possible foal.
Sheila left Varian Arabians and Major Mac V in the hands of long-time employee Angela Alvarez because she knew after 30 years under her direct tutelage she would carry on all the knowledge she shared with her over the years.
Angela is always available for questions, call or text 805-441-1229 or email
BREEDING BY TRANSPORTED SEMEN
If you want to breed your mare with shipped/cooled semen, I will send to you by email the Transported Breeding Contract for your review. It’s a very easy process and ideal for the mares who do not reside close to the stallion’s farm. Major Mac V’s breeding fee for 2026 is $1000.00 for Purebred and Half/Arab mares. Collection fee is $300 & client pays for Fed Ex overnight shipping. Client provides Varian Arabians with their personal Fed Ex account number. There are 2 doses in the equitainer with a minimum of 1 billion progressive motile sperm. Major Mac V has excellent 1st cycle conception rates.
ON THE FARM BREEDING @VARIAN EQUESTRIAN CENTER – ARROYO GRANDE, CA
If it is more convenient for you to bring your mare directly to the farm so she can be bred with “fresh” semen I will email the breeding contract that pertains to that service. Dr. Joy Altermatt, DVM is the attending Reproductive Veterinarian at Varian Equestrian Center. She is an excellent Veterinarian; she specializes in not only Artificial Insemination but Embryo Transfer and ICSI. You will also receive a breeding contract from her and a boarding contract from Varian Equestrian Center.
