How much money does a horse breeder earn?

Answer 1

Ask someone at the reference desk of your local public library for the Occupational Outlook Handbook. It lists all kinds of information you would need to know,(including the salary) of just about any occupation you can think of. *Shelbybr says: How much money you can make depends on the breed and bloodlines of the horses you breed. Thoroughbred race horses can go for millions, while a plain "riding horse" can go for $500. Show horses are worth more. You will have to consider the value of the horse, the money it takes to bring the foal to market, and how strong the market is. Some breeders actually LOOSE money by the end of the year. (Like me!) It's a very hit-or-miss business, and no matter what you breed, it takes a lot of money to do it. Quality horses cost money, while cheap horses rarely produce high-dollar foals.

Answer 2

There really is no one answer to this question as the amount of money a breeder will make varies greatly.Some breeders turn a very tidy profit yearly, typically these breeders produce high quality race and show horses. Other breeders break even and most lose money on the breeding endeavor. This is due to the fact that horses are expensive animals to keep and can cost upwards of $3,000 per year, per animal or more just for feed, farrier, vet, and basic shelter. So by the time a horse is sold the breeder has lost money. This doesn't even include the cost of the stud fee or mare care, or care and feeding during pregnancy.

Answer 3

The income of a horse breeder can vary widely depending on factors such as the breed of horse, number of horses bred, expenses, and market demand for the horses. On average, a horse breeder can earn anywhere from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands of dollars annually.
