Hey guys...sorry I haven't been on in a while, it has just been pretty hectic around here.
I ended up finding a new home for Batman. He was just too hard to keep fenced, and I felt terrible keeping him in a tiny corral all of the time. Anyway, he ended up going back to the people that had him as a foal! They have a couple of little girls around and they are spoiling him rotten already!
Actually, the people that had him as a foal ALSO had Robin. They had bought her to breed and ended up having her checked because she wasn't showing heat. So, apparently they said that her ovaries were the size of raisins?? They said she doesn't ovulate. Well, I had seen no signs of heat except for ONE time last May and it wasn't much then. Well, Batman left about a month and a half ago and I have seen Robin show heat TWICE since then.
My question is...What is the normal size of a miniature mare's ovaries? Also, why is she showing heat if she doesn't ovulate?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
