After deciding to give up breeding a few months ago, ive since had some lovely comments on my youngsters. So, thought id carry on. Fortunately husband is very supportive. So here we go again !
Took both mares for a quick check and scan. We had seen Aria come into season this week, and vets confirmed a decent CL. Wanted semen today. So fortunately managed to get that sorted. But, on scanning her the vet found a decent amount of blood, que panic that she had a rectal lining tear. So antibiotics to stop an infection, which could have led to peritonitis/death.. Semen arrived and vet says its like rocket fuel. Vets updating me twice a day, and Aria is all good, no blood in poo at all. They cant scan her until shes ready for a heart beat scan now, just to give a tear chance to heal. Going forward she will need to be slightly sedated for scanning so she doesnt push against it.
Chosen a nice little connie again, as i really like the cross with Aria. Im thinking this will be her last foal ( if she actually catches )
Pip, was her usual self, very chilled. Weirdly excited about going into the stocks. Looks as though we have missed her probably last week, but she never shows. So shes going back next Thursday. She will be going to another pure ID, but still struggling to choose.
Anyone else planning any ?
