I'm sure I read in some posts that witht he mare cycling problems everyone has been having if they were breeding later this year - that some have used prostaglandin injections but they've caused mares to ovulate before actually coming into season and being covered, so have failed but taken on a second normal season after that.
Have they worked straight off for anyone?
I struggled with mine as she has almost silent seasons but had shown in season 19 May. She was swabbed and went to stud and *should* have been in season but wasn't, and they teased her for 3 weeks with nothing at all.
She was jabbed with prostaglandin and was in season on the 4th day (jabbed on the Tuesday, in season and covered on Friday and Sunday - but then she had the tear so wasn't covered again.
Taking her for her 17 day scan today and fretting now! She came home so wasn't at the stud to see if she's back in season later this week.
Just wondered if it had been successful in some mares this year?
