Vaccination schedule for pregnant mares
Equine reproduction experts recommend vaccination schedule and guidelines for pregnant mares.
The overdue mare
Mare carried for 385 days – 45 more than average. The tiny foal eventually developed into a robust athletic reining horse.
Twin Management
Twins are a significant cause of reduced reproductive efficiency in the mare and may result in early pregnancy loss, abortion, stillbirth, or early neonatal death.
Why are some pregnant mares administered progesterone?
Progesterone is the key hormone responsible for maintaining pregnancy in all mammals, including horses.
Pregnancy Examination
Early accurate diagnosis of pregnancy status, detection and management of twins and identification of pregnancy loss are all important for optimal reproductive management of mares.
