He said she was kicking and rearing up and pawing at him if he came near her. That is way not like her. She's sweet and gets along with everybody. My uncle gave me the mare for Christmas and I talked to him and he said when they bred her last year they had no problems. We both think the shots messed her up.

Expert Posts: 1477 Location: In the land of peanuts and cotton	Well we went to get her today and she kept having a for so he decided to try one more time. She let him breed her twice in a hour and half. We was gonna try one more time but she wouldn't let him then. So hoping the 2 times is enough. She wasn't in heat Sunday like he originally said. He gave her the other shot Sunday and she came in Wednesday. Edited by TessBelle 2014-03-29 3:16 PM

He gave her the other shot Sunday and she came in Wednesday. From my understanding he is a college student with very little experience in the breeding barn. A mare does NOT and I mean SHOULD NOT be bred twice in that short of time. Super hard on the stallion too. Once every other day is plenty. If the swimmers can swim and she is ovulating that is all you need. I sure hope it works out for you, but in the future I highly suggest picking a stallion from an experienced breeder.

How freakish is that? Posts: 3927 Location: Oregon	The owner or handler of this stallion is an idiot. There is no reason whatsoever to breed that mare twice in that length of time. headdesk

There is no reason whatsoever to breed that mare twice in that length of time. headdesk Glad you said what I was thinking. ETA: A mare should never be covered more than once in a 24 hour period. The semen (any foreign matter) causes an inflamitory reaction in the mare's uterus. The fluid caused by this inflamation needs to clear before the next breeding. It is usually not recommended to breed in normal circumstances more often than every 48 hours (approximately). I usually cover mares every other day from the time I start breeding them.

He was very good to is when we got there. I know everyone said I shouldn't pay him but I felt bad about not paying becUse it wasn't his fault to begin with she wouldn't breed. I offered to pay and he wouldn't let me. So we were both satisfied.

When I was 12 we took my injured barrel mare that was going to be out for a little while to a stud and she came up open when we preg checked her. i was broken hearted. Then we retried that same season and she was in foal. I got the most perfect little bay roan colt out of the deal and still have him. He's going to be 21 May 5th. You just never know and there is a lot to it, when by nature it should be so simple. We pasture breed so that takes all the guess work out of it. By % standpoints we get nearly 100% conception so whether they get more "dirty" or not, we rarely have to flush a mare. If you felt you needed to pay, that is between the both of you. Good luck
