GATE FARM'S CAN'T TOUCH THIS
ADMS Registration
Number #A-12129 Born November 7th, 2002 Sire-
Diamond C Montana Jack ADMS# A-4022 Dam- Gate Farm’s Maybelline
ADMS #E-12127
Stud Fee: $600
The Stud Fee is a
complete package. It includes up to two (2) shipments of Cooled
Semen in disposable shippers shipped within the continuous United
States by Priority Overnight Delivery through FedEx and sent
directly to your farm or vet’s office. There is no monetary refund
for any un-used Cooled Semen shipments included in the Stud Fee. If
you live outside the continuous United States there would be
additional changes, please call for more information and a price.
Most Stud Fees are
separate from the collection fees for shipped Cooled Semen. If they
are included they normally only include 1 collection before
additional collection fees start being charged. We know going AI can
be expense or cost prohibitive for some people when additional
charges for this and that start racking up. So we try to make it as
easy as possible so that those of you looking to breed to top
quality show proven jacks can do so without breaking the bank.
Therefore we offer a
complete breeding package.No separate fees or extra charges for collections, shipping,
disposable shippers, handling, delivery to transfer station etc….
Just a flat $600 Stud Fee gives you up to two shipments of Cooled
Semen shipped Priority Overnight through FedEx and sent directly to
your farm or vet’s office. If at all possible we ship two (2)
doses of Cooled Semen in each shipment. Both of these jacks
are excellent shippers and have a much better semen quality than
stallions. They have substantially higher semen counts, no gel, very
few cells with abnormal morphology, and a very high motility rate.
Their sperm also have stronger staying power in the extender. It is
not unusual to have 30% or better motility 48 hours out.As long as the Cooled Semen is handled per our instructions
upon its arrival it should be good and viable for at least 48 hours.
We always try to include 2 doses in each shipment so that if
ovulation is delayed and you need semen at 36 - 48 hours out you
already have it there and ready to go.
In the event that your
mare/jennet needs more than the 2 shipments of Cooled Semen that
come included in the $600 Stud Fee additional shipments for that
mare may be purchased for $200. This $200 includes the collection,
disposable shipper and Priority Overnight shipping through FedEx to
have the Cooled Semen delivered directly to your farm or vet’s
office.
A Breeding Contract is
available for printing from this website. Be sure to read it
thoroughly and be sure to check the correct box for the jack of your
choice before mailing it in. The $600 Stud Fee must be paid and all
checks or money orders must clear the bank prior to any semen
shipments. I prefer to have all the paperwork into my office at
least 30 days prior to any calls for semen. If you have less than 30
days before needing semen please call me so that we can expedite
your paperwork and work out all the logistics before your mare needs
semen so that breeding is not delayed.
When choosing the
proper jack to breed to your mare in pursuit of that “perfect”
performance mule, there are many things to take into consideration.
Conformation, temperament, beauty, brains, and trainability are of
primary importance. The chosen jack should complement your mare.
When choosing a mammoth jack to produce a performance mule or saddle
mule you should look for all the things previously mentioned but you
also want to look for refinement, muscle mass and athletic ability.
You do not want to sacrifice athletic ability and movement by
choosing a jack that is too tall, coarse or drafty. There are
much more important factors to be concerned about other than “how
tall” something will be. After all what good is a 15 HD+ performance
mule if it can’t run, jump, slide or spin? Or what good is a saddle
mule that’s so tall you’re always ducking branches or need a
mounting block to get on and off? Or a saddle mule that’s too
drafty to navigate narrow mountain trails or bend and flex around
objects? Mules are unique creatures of design. So by carefully
choosing the right jack you have an opportunity to create a custom
made mule to suit your specific needs. So what you want to do with
your mule 5 years or 10 years from now has everything to do with
what jack you choose today. If you are unsure of which jack would
best suit your needs, just give me a call or drop us a line and
we’ll be glad to help you pick which jack would be best for your
custom made mule.
Gate Farm’s Can’t
Touch This or “CT” as he is known to family and friends, is a 56”
Tri Colored Spotted Mammoth jack. And yes he too is also
GAITED! CT joined his brothers Ace and Ewok on the 2004 Chino Open
Horse Show Circuit to compete against horses on their turf, play by
their rules and win! These shows draw 150 – 250+ of Southern
California’s very best Halter horses at each show. These horses show
at the APHA World Show and the AQHA Congress Show so this is by no
means easy competition or a piece of cake. But when all was said and
done it came down to this: Gate Farms Can't Touch This had won –
2004 Year End High Point
Grand Champion Halter 2 Year Olds, Year End High Point Grand
Champion Halter Stallions, Year End High Point Reserve Champion
Halter Donkey and now drum roll please..................
YEAR END HIGH POINT ALL
AROUND HALTER HORSE OF THE YEAR!!!!
In the interest of saving
time, Gate Farm’s Can’t Touch This show results for 2004 have been
condensed. He accomplished all of this in just 1 year! Keep in mind
that CT was only 3 years old when he accomplished all this. There
has never been a jack before or since that has accomplished what he
has competing against horses on a Major Open Horse Show Circuit.
Because of the Mountain Fire and the re-building of our Temecula
Facility we have not shown any of the jacks. CT has been furthering
his education by pleasure driving and riding. See additional photos
of CT below.
