stud fees
Sire service payments
Stud fees are charges paid to breed with a male animal, typically a horse or dog with desirable genetics or pedigree.
The owner of the stud collects the fee for access to the animal's reproductive services: The stud fees for a Kentucky Derby winner can exceed $100,000.
The term occasionally appears humorously about human reproduction.
