stud fee

Sire service cost

A stud fee is the charge for breeding services from a male animal, especially a horse or dog with desirable bloodlines: The Kentucky Derby winner commands a stud fee of half a million dollars.

The fee typically covers a single breeding attempt or season, with terms varying by industry and the animal's pedigree.
