About this product

BIRTH ALARM CLASSIC — THE ORIGINAL BIRTH ALARM SINCE 1992

The Birth Alarm Classic always works — even without mobile coverage. For more than 30 years the choice for horse owners who want absolute certainty around birth.

The Birth Alarm Classic is the original birth alarm system in our range. The system works via a powerful 433 MHz radio signal and needs no app, SIM card or internet connection. Thanks to the three modes — normal mode, sleep mode and colic mode — the Classic offers maximum reliability for every mare. Ideal for both private owners and large stables, thanks to the expandability to four mares.

This system is delivered excluding anti-roll girth. To use the Birth Alarm Classic you need this girth. If you don’t have an anti-roll girth yet, choose the Classic Complete.

The Birth Alarm Classic is the first system that Birth Alarm ever developed and has been a trusted solution worldwide for safe foal births since 1992. This model stands out for its simplicity, stability, and the fact that it works completely independently of mobile networks or internet. The alarm signal is sent via a powerful 433 MHz radio signal to a physical receiver that you place, for example, in your house or next to your bed. This keeps the system reliable, even in remote locations or stables with poor coverage.

Detection based on natural lying behavior

When a mare is about to foal, she almost always lies down completely flat. The transmitter, mounted on your mare’s withers with an anti-roll girth, registers this specific horizontal position and immediately sends a signal to the receiver.
As soon as the mare lies completely flat, the transmitter starts “transmitting” and the alarm follows after a few seconds.

Three unique modes for maximum precision

The Classic is the only Birth Alarm model with three different modes:

  • Normal mode
    Detects the specific foaling position (lying on side). Alarm within approximately 7 seconds.
  • Sleep mode
    Developed for mares that sleep deeply in full side-lying position, this occurs more often in older mares. The alarm is only activated when the mare comes out of this position during a contraction, within 2.5 minutes.
  • Colic mode
    Essential for mares with colic risk. The alarm goes off within 1 second when the horse lies completely flat for longer than 2 seconds.

Always works, even without coverage

Because the Classic functions completely independently via a radio signal, you are completely independent of mobile coverage or wifi signal. Ideal for rural areas or when this is your preference.

For one to four mares simultaneously

The Birth Alarm Classic is the only model that can be expanded to four mares thanks to additional transmitters (one main transmitter with automatic transmitter monitoring + maximum three additional transmitters). Perfect for professional breeders or stables.

Simple operation via physical receiver

The receiver has clear buttons and indicator lights for modes and alarm. Resetting is done simply via the switch on the receiver. Very easy and intuitive for the user.

Birth Alarm Classic is recommended for:

  • Stables without good mobile coverage or wifi reception
  • Professional breeders who want to monitor multiple mares
  • Mares with increased risk of colic
  • Owners who want a system without apps, wifi or technical settings

Less suitable when you want to receive notifications on your phone or monitor the system remotely. For that, Premium, Premium Plus or Lite 2.0 are suitable.

Why Birth Alarm?

The moment you don't want to miss

The birth of a foal is a special and vulnerable moment, one that you, as a breeder, wouldn’t want to miss. Birth Alarm helps you be present at precisely the right moment, without disturbing your mare. Thanks to our smart transmitters, based on the mare’s natural behavior during foaling, you are immediately alerted as soon as the first contractions begin. This way, you can be at ease, optimally prepared, and give your mare the peace and attention she deserves. Since 1992, we have been making the lives of humans and animals safer and more comfortable, with a solution that continuously evolves.

They trust us

Our first foal was born safely with a borrowed device. It was very reassuring to get an alarm, especially since the camera had limited range. Now our mare is pregnant again and Birth Alarm gives us peace of mind once more.

Our mare has surprised us a few times before, and we really wanted to prevent that this time. Without the Birth Alarm, the birth could have gone wrong. For me, I’ll never go without it again.
Margreet

Dutch KWPN Breeder

We have been using the Birth Alarm Classic for years and are super satisfied! It has already saved the lives of several foals, for example when the amniotic sac has not opened. This was also the case with the little Painted Draco and his mother Imandra.
Susanna H.

German Breeder

Highly recommended. We have been using Birth Alarm for over twenty years. For years, we used the old set with the crescent moon transmitters, and now we have the new set. It provides a lot of peace of mind, especially a good night’s sleep for people who have to go to work during the day 😉.

Birth Alarm is indispensable in our clinic. Together with the camera system, it’s the reason we haven’t missed a single miracle in the past 7 years 🍀❤️.
Tereza

Clinic owner

During a difficult birth and with a foal whose allantois had not opened, the Birth Alarm allowed us to be present from the very beginning. Thanks to the system, we now have 2 healthy foals, which might not have been the case otherwise.
