About the Company
Shamrock Farms
Woodbine, MD
Breeding
Shamrock is a full service breeding farm. Thoroughbreds encompass the majority of our breeding and we currently stand three stallions: Baltimore Bob, Barbados, and Outflanker. The breeding shed is open from February 14th – July 3rd, with two sessions daily, at 9:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Our vet is equine reproductive specialist, Dr. Pete Sheerin who is here throughout the week on a regular basis
Foaling
Foal watch usually begins in Mid January, and we hope to be done by the end of May. We utilize the Breeder Alert System as well as night watch personnel. Jim’s wife Christie who’s foaled mares here for over twenty years oversees each foaling. We keep a store of frozen colostrum and oral Seramune to use when supplementation is warranted to ensure the foals get off to a good start.
Boarding
We offer seasonal and year round boarding for mares and their offspring. Rates are reduced for resident mares. Barren and maiden mares are started under lights in December to get them ready for the breeding season. Routine vet work, ie, dewormings and blacksmith as well as reproductive checks are scheduled when needed and are added to your monthly statement.
