Just a hypothetical question here.
You bought a mare, one you really liked, wanted her as a broodmare. Upon buying her, she is possibly in foal, no guarantees, though but you buy her anyway. The person you buy the mare from have only had her a few months and have no history of her at all, but she is in good health and 12 yrs old.
She has been with a stallion since they bought her, saw her breed and no more heats to their knowledge and was still kept with the stallion.
After you buy her the vet ultra sounds her to be open.
My question (finally), now what would you do, check for an infection, if there isn't one, what is the next step?
How much time would you give her to get into foal before you thought she was barren?
