I have an 10 year old stallion and a 3 year old mare,I defintiely do not want to sell ethier and don't want them to breed.Seperating them,is an option but a huge hassle because they are used to being together with an younger gelding.The stallion being as old as he is and the breed (belgian) the vets I know are understandibly hesitant about gelding him,too much risk involved.Is there availible birth control opitions for mares to stop them from going into heat? Or to prevent stallions from being fertile if he does mount her? she's way too young to breed and he's too fine a horse to give up.Considering sadly how people I've encountered fear stallions and keep them stabled,etc.I've had him for 10 years and he's never been a bit of trouble,always had his mare with him(sadly untill recently,lost her and her foal).I want what's best for him and to avoid any complications.
