"The 20 masks you put on our mares in early December are working beautifully. Our mares are foaling closer to their due dates than is usual during the winter months and they are just as effective in getting mares to come into oestrus as lighted stalls, if not more so. They represent a large saving of both money and labor as compared to bringing mares in and out of barns with lighted stalls, cleaning and rebedding stalls etc."

Alan J. Leavitt, Walnut Hall Ltd. Kentucky, USA.

"Debbie and I used Equilume Light Masks on four barren mares and one maiden mare last season at Jackson Purchase Farm. I was a little reluctant to part with proven ways, but I am happy to say that the masks worked great. All of the mares had breedable follicles and had gone through transition by the February 14th. Four of the mares conceived on the first cover while one was more challenging. In the winter of 2014 we had zero issues with the mares being outside 24/7, often in sub-zero temperatures. Besides the fact that the mares all cycled as I hoped, I am still married, spent less on van and vet charges and had healthier mares. Like extended turnout for any class of horse, daily observation, occasional adjusting of masks and adjustment of feed and hay is necessary. For me the economics were good and the mares simply did better outside. I am a believer!"

“I loved having​ the light mask this past winter for my mare. It worked SO well. She is an older mare, and absolutely hates being stalled. So I had no choice than to either wait til summer to start breeding her, or use the light mask. I took a chance and used the light mask. It worked like a charm! She started cycling early (March), kept her weight on beautifully, and most importantly, she was HAPPY to be outside. The mask held up great! I never had any issues with her rubbing it off, or it falling apart, etc. I would love to have another one!"

Last season, I really put the Equilume Light Mask to the test. I used it on mares that for years would’nt cycle until April or May. With the EquilumeTM Light Mask the mares were cycling by the end of January. Staying outside with the mask is positive for the horse, for their life, for mares cycling, for their hair coat. I look forward to using the mask again this season. I am sold!

"I have come to the undeniable conclusion that the masks successfully advanced reproductive activity in my mares in time for the start of the breeding season. The quality, durability and reliability of the masks I must add is second to none."

Sebastian Murat, Coldwater Farm, Kentucky, USA.

We used the Equilume Light Masks last season on a selection of our in-foal mares with a history of long gestation lengths. We found that the masks worked to good effect and resulted in a significant reduction in gestation lengths compared to the same mare's gestations last year. We intend to use them again.

Equilume is the best lighting program I have ever experienced! We used it on 100% of our mares (including Recipient mares). My mares were cycling better than ever before on February 1st. I always said that mares that lived outside had less uterine fluid, this was the proof! This year my mares were outside grazing and playing with their buddies 16 more hours a day than they had in the past. My old mares this year had minimal problems with poor uterine clearance and urine pooling. I have no doubt that is because of being outside 24/7.

"We purchased one of these new masks for a mare here in Ballydorgan Stud who has consistently foaled well past her due date. 6 weeks overdue in 2012! She foaled bang on time last night, so we are well impressed with this new concept and product."

John & Annemarie O’Connor, Ballydorgan Stud, Ireland

"We used the Equilume Light Masks last year with great success. Our dry mares were all cycling and covered early, while reducing our management costs significantly. Our pregnant mares that wore the masks foaled on time with excellent post-foaling fertility, especially mares that had previously struggled to cycle with foal at foot. We would highly recommend Equilume to farms that want to reduce costs and improve breeding efficiency."

Mike Fleming, Broadwater Thoroughbreds.

"I have been excited since being introduced to this concept and have successfully used the Equilume™ Light Masks for the last two breeding seasons, I am confident that they will be a world wide success for breeders. In the difficult breeding year of 2013, Equilume™ was a ‘shining light’ in tightening our average gestation lengths."
