Knowing when to stop riding your pregnant broodmare can be a debatable topic. This article will review recommended time points. However, like an individual person, each broodmare has independent feelings and each pregnancy can be different for a particular broodmare. It is always recommended that you consult your veterinarian when deciding the best plan of action regarding riding your broodmare and how strenuous the activity should be.

The Livestock Conservancy classifies the Poitou Donkey, a native breed of France, as a critical species that is in danger of becoming extinct. Their large ears, long heads, heavy b***d muscular bodies, and dreadlock like coat are unmistakable. However, the breed had fewer than 80 registered animals by 1980. Check out how some American breeders are breathing life back into this special breed.

Want to know the "Facts About Frozen Semen and Post-breeding Uterine Fluid?" Some have suggested it is the components of the extender, particularly extenders used for freezing semen. However, research has shown that the inflammatory response is a normal response induced by s***m cells and only becomes abnormal when the inflammation and accumulated fluid last more than 48 hours. One question that repeatedly comes up is whether frozen semen results in greater inflammation than cooled semen or fresh semen. Click on the link below to find the answer!

Why choose equine frozen semen? One reason is that it can be shipped well in advance of the mare needing to be bred. Doing so can help to avoid weather related shipping delays, missed breeding cycles, semen waiting lists for high demand stallions and much more.
