AI
My horse has just come home after being artificially inseminated.
Everything went well so it is now a nervous wait until she can be scanned in 2 weeks to see if she is in foal. PLease keep everything crossed for good news

Re: AI
Good luck!!
Mine is off today for AI. How long did your mare end up staying there for? I am so worried about her, i know she will be very very well cared for (will probably be like a holiday to her lol!) but i already miss her! The vets have visiting hours, so i will probably be there several times a week to make sure she's ok!

Re: AI
She was only there for two days.
We knew her dates exactly so she was taken up at the exact right time. We took her up on the Tuesday and we colleted the semen from the stud on Wednesday and she was inseminated same day and we took her home the day after. How long do you think your mare has to stay there then as it is usually a very short stay unless you don't know if she is in season or not. Who is you r mare being put to and where do you live just out of interest.

No, she doesnt show when she is in season so i thought it best to just send her there and them do the scans and keep her in til its all done. Vet phone this morning to say he's hoping she will be ready in the next couple of days so it shouldnt be long  I've never bred a horse before (breeding a foal purely for myself, not to sell or anything!!) so i thought it best to just leave it to the experts Im in Gloucestershire. She is being put to a Knabstrupper stallion.

Re: AI
Well keep me posted on her progress.It is a finger biting two weeks waiting for the scan.I have been through it all last year but sadly she failed to conceive.
I have bred one foal before but it was a natural conception which is so much easier than this AI lark lol. Well fingers crossed that both of them conceive this time.

Re: AI
I've not heard from the vet today, so i dont know if thats good news or bad news. He has been ringing by 9am every other day she was there, but its 4pm and no call at all... weird! Its definately a faff having all this AI stuff to worry about, but im reliably informed that if you can get them in foal using AI you have less risk of them reabsorbing due to infections and stuff... But i've just taken advice from others! The main reason for me using AI was because my mare doesnt show at all when she's in season lol!
But yes, fingers crossed for them both! Its nice to know someone else is going through the same thing at the same time

Re: AI

Fingers crossed!
