The mare must be enrolled for embryo/oocyte transfer prior to intended collection and must meet all other registration requirements including parentage verification. A fact sheet on embryo/oocyte transfer is available.
Embryo transfer: the donor mare is bred and the fertilized egg is removed and placed into a recipient mare.
Oocyte transfer: an unfertilized egg is removed from the donor mare and placed into a recipient mare and the recipient mare is then bred

|
| Frozen Semen- |
Semen collected and frozen for future breeding purposes. Stallion owners using this method must file a collection insemination certificate notifying AQHA of its use and make notation on the breeding report filed with AQHA. These forms are available from AQHA free of charge. Foals produced through the use of frozen semen must be parentage verified before being registered. A fact sheet on artificial insemination is available. |
| |
|
| Genetic Typed- |
All mares born on or after January 1, 1992, must have a genetic type on file with AQHA prior to the registration of any foal produced by them; in 2003, mares foaled on or after January 1, 1991; in 2004, mares foaled on or after January 1, 1990; in 2005, mares foaled on or after January 1, 1989. |

|
| Incentive Fund Foal- |
The Incentive Fund is a multimillion-dollar program for which
stallions are nominated prior to each breeding season, thereby making the
resulting foals eligible for lifetime nomination. Once the foals are nominated
and begin earning points, paybacks are made each year to the stallion nominators,
foal nominators, and owners of the competing horses.
A foal may be nominated
at any time during its first 24 months of age. From the foaling date to the
7-month birthdate, the fee is $100. From the day after the 7-month birthdate
to the 12-month birthdate the fee is $200.Beginning with 1998 foals, the
fee after the 12th month to the 18th month birthdate is $2,000. After the
18th month to the 24th month birthdate the fee is $5,000. If the foal has
earned ½ point or more in an AQHA-approved event, it is no longer eligible
to be nominated. |
| |
|
| Incentive Fund Stallion- |
The year listed on the horse's record is the last year the
stallion was nominated for the Incentive Fund. Stallions available for breeding
during the 2002 breeding season must be nominated to the AQHA Incentive Fund
Program by November 20, 2001 in order to make foals conceived during that year
eligible for participation in the program. Stallions may be nominated anytime
during the breeding year by paying their normal fee plus a penalty of two times
that fee. For any stallion to which no mares have been exposed prior to 2001,
the deadline for nomination is 90 days after his first breeding date.
Nominations are annual and a stallion must be renominated for any successive
breeding seasons to make those foals eligible. Absolutely no nominations for the
2002 breeding season will be accepted after December 31, 2002. |
