I know this sounds a bit silly but what is the oldest age for breeding a stallion?
Can you only breed directly from him until 23?
Are you able to collect semen after this (up to 32.95 or so)?
I can't find this info anywhere and it seems like such a dumb question to not know!

Yay 
cool i didn't want to turn him if he couldn't breed (by semen) after 23 as he's a really good horse, my best, so i wanted to double check.

Oh can you really?
Super!
I kept getting my studs' semen before they were 23. So now I have a crapload of it. Haha.
This is good to know.

I roll my studlets out to 32 and then collect semen. Sometimes i'll push it to 33 if I feel they can roll. Take the semen, retire them 
Thank goodness they get auto-reitred at 33.1 and not 33, tis all I can say
