"FIRST CYTE is fulfilling all of my expectations as a sire.  Already a Leading Juvenile Sire and a Leading Yearling Sweepstakes Sire, in 2004 he became the sire of both National and International Champions.  His oldest foals are now beginning to enter the show ring and are winning in performance classes.  FIRST CYTE foals tend to be both beautiful and athletic with great dispositions and willing temperaments.  I know every inch of this stallion and am getting better every year at matching him to the right mares. I have already bred foals that have captured one National Championship and three Reserve National Championships in halter. Call me if you have questions about your mare.  I love to "talk horses" and I am always interested in finding that special cross."

Greymoor Farm is dedicated to breeding the finest First Cyte foals
and to providing the best possible breeding services to our clients.

For the 2007 breeding season First Cyte's stud fee
 is reduced to  $2,500.
 

Multiple breeding discounts are available.  While First Cyte is scheduled for regular semen collections on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and that schedule is adhered to as much as possible, in 2006 he was collected whenever client mares were ready for insemination (including weekends).  Because we are offering that flexibility (when available) to our clients, we ask that you work with us with respect to updates on the progress of your mares, allowing us to better plan collections and meet the needs of all our breeders.

In 2007 we will continue to collect First Cyte in the afternoon, rather than the morning.  This will allow our clients extra time to ultrasound their mares for a same day collection. Please notify us 24 hours in advance of your anticipated need for semen, and then confirm by 1:00 pm the day you want semen shipped.  First Cyte is shipping so well that we are using FedEx overnight again during 2007.  This eliminates racing to the airport in the morning and gives our clients a bit more time to get their mares checked.  Counter-to-counter is still available, but we will need as much advance notice as possible for that option.

TESTIMONIALS
“I have had dealings with Donna Hentges and Greymoor Farm over the years and have found her to be pleasant and very helpful. Both she and her staff are knowledgeable and professional. The semen shipments I have received have been both of excellent quality and quantity. The semen has good holding characteristics as well as excellent motility and morphology. I have
received shipments both via Counter to Counter and regular FedEx and found all shipments to be in excellent shape. I have had no difficulty in getting my mares settled and I look forward to continuing to breed my mares to her stallion in the future”.

“We have been considering using First Cyte on some of our mares for the last couple of years.  We finally made the decision this year to book three mares to him and have bred the first one, our national top ten mare, Cinnamon Candy V.  We found Greymoor Farm to be very friendly, professional and accommodating.  The shipped semen process can become very expensive and frustrating if there isn’t close cooperation between the stallion and mare owners.  The quality of First Cyte’s semen was outstanding when delivered by Federal Express.  We were able to use the semen  to breed Cinnamon over a two day period.  The semen maintained its excellence and she is in foal.  This is one of our easiest and least expensive breeding experiences.  A First Cyte filly will make it perfect.”
