What does this mean for mare owners? In order to give your broodmare the best chance possible at conceiving a pregnancy, you need to ensure she is healthy and ready to go!

🎯This is a simple procedure that gets fast results. We typically recommend doing this well before you are ready to start breeding or on the first cycle of her season. This culture allows us to select corrective treatment protocols and get her “cleaned up”. This is a 𝘏𝘜𝘎𝘌 money saving step in the process. Without this knowledge you can have numerous failed attempts which just keep stacking up your expenses.
🎯Nowadays more & more stud owners/farms are requiring a negative culture on file with them before they will ship semen for your mare. This saves them money as well and doses of semen. Check those contracts!

Once again a simple procedure that only takes a few minutes, but gives us a wealth of information in the health of the uterine environment. Chronic endometritis is a real issue in certain populations of mares and can wreck a breeding season!
