has anyone elses mares come into season already?

[georgiegirl]

Autumn has and its very early! Was grooming her tonight and she showed me in no uncertain terms she was enjoying it, filthy mare! So coupled with the looneyness of getting over her snow bound holiday I now have hormones to contend with too! Its bloomin early, I thought april was generally when they got going again but I guess they are all different!

 

[naza]

yes my mare, that's because she;s out with a gelding though :/

 

[treacle_beastie]

dont think mine stopped this year

 

[Cuppatea]

got a barnfull of em....

 

[Hen]

got a barnfull of em....

Same here!

 

[helencharlie]

Yes, friends mare was tarting with a stallion the other day!

 

[SecretSquirrell379]

my mare has not stopped either over the winter, little fluzzy she is!!

 

[MrsHutt]

Yes, Hugo's girlfriend, Dolly! Unfortunately she is Frank's girlfriend, too - classic love triangle!

 

[royal]

My mare hasn't stopped all year!! Every 2-3 weeks regular as clockwork.....

Only problem is, when she's in season, she keeps jumping out of the field (having never done this before in 6 years of owning her!)

One of the 16hh mares at our yard is in season and was flirting outrageously with an 11hh hairy pony!! He really thought his luck was in!

 

[caramel]

friend's mare (15.2 gypsy vanner) is just coming into season! she hates all boys walking past her stable

 

[sprite1978]

A mare in our yard was all over my boy like a rash just before christmas. He was so confused!

 

[Spyda]

Glad it's not just mine! -10 degrees and mines in season. FTW! She must be mad!!!

 

[Queenbee]

Yep, mine did today. I went to ride her for the first time in about 2 months and the hunt went through, half hour later she was her old slapper self in the field! She had quite a spring in her step when I rode her a couple of hours later!

 

[Ella19]

yup mine is first time ever. She's merrily squealing at the boys when we past their field on the way in and has been a complete cow bag for the last few weeks!

 

[irishdraft]

Yep mine too, first noticed when we were standing at the meet last wednesday, most embarrassing !! 5th of jan !!!

 

[Ali27]

Mine is - her bed has been soaking the last few days.

 

[littlemisslauren]

None of our 7 mares at work stopped at all. They have all been a joy to handle on the ice.

 

[Toffee44]

Toffee is in season and she has started to loose some winter coat as well, are we turning a corner?

 

[Slightlyconfused]

Mine has.....tried to kill me in the stable the other day and flirting with the gelding at the back of her feild so quick phone call to the vets and pick up her first bottle of regumate of the year......i was hoping she would wait till march at least! lol

 

[paulineh]

Yes one of my Arab mare is in season. She is standing watching the gelding next door and when I let them into the field next to theirs she just standing nose to nose winking and squirting like mad.

Happy to have the fun but will not stay in foal.

Just waiting for my other mares to come into season too.

 

[alpha1]

Yes and behaving like a real madame!!!

 

[nosenseofdirection]

Mine as well, we had passage, half pass and all manner of histrionics in the school on Sunday because of the gelding she fancies in the paddock next door. Now just need to work on getting her to do it when I ask her to...

 

[tantallon]

Mine have never stopped either - they seem to cycle pretty much all year now

 

[Patches]

My mares (3) were all showing clearly in season a fortnight ago. Our gelding pony was loving the attention!

 

[vikkiandmonica]

Yep, my mare, in a field full of geldings, 2 of which will not let her go her own way or let anyone take her out the field (one is Wings, shown below)

 

[RolyPolyPony]

my mare has not stopped either over the winter, little fluzzy she is!!

Same with one of the liveries where i keep my boy.

 

[miss_bird]

yep mine are all showing already, fair early this year

 

[opinionuk]

My mare has come into season and is a right stroppy madam, hope it doesn't get any worse in spring! i've put her on a herbal supplement called 'frisky mare' which seems to be balancing out her hormones so fingers crossed!

 

[Puppy]

Yup, both my mares have been in season lately, and there's not a gelding in sight
