Charmer is a rare homozygous grey- meaning that any mare of any color will have a foal that is grey- guaranteed. He has excellent semen quality, boasting a 90% first breeding conception rate on fresh/chilled semen. With being an approved stallion, all of his offspring out of any breed of mare can be registered at birth as an Irish Draught Sport Horse. No foal or dam inspection is necessary for registration. All his foals are eligible for inspection- meaning they they themselves can be approved and then bred on to produce another registered Irish Draught Sport Horse.
Cappa Irish Charmer is known for his consistently high quality semen and outstanding 1st breeding conception rates. He is an excellent choice for maiden, older and difficult mares.
*90% first breeding conception rate on fresh/chilled 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018
*Nearly 100% 2nd breeding conception rate on fresh/chilled.
As of the 2024 foaling season, Charmer will have over 250 foals on the ground. See the "Offspring" for pictures of some of his early progeny or checkout his Facebook page to get the latest news, photos and video of what Charmer and his offspring are up to (Facebook link in the upper right corner).
Check out the video to the right, it's easy to see why Charmer has such high conception rates! Many vets have told us this is the best semen they have seen in years, or ever seen!
