I have a mare that foaled this morning sometime, she has a very small bag, she had a bigger bag last week and showed no signs of foaling last night. She is a QH, maiden and only 2, she was given a shot last year to absorb the breeding along with 3 other mares, the others are all open and by the time we realized she did not it was to late!! So anyways I gave her a shot of oxytocin but I had also heard to give domperdone to bring in milk. We went to vet to get domperdone and the tech said since the foal was already born the domperdone was not worth giving!! I am curious what everyone else has experienced.
The foal has gotten colustrum and did finally get up and nurse on his own and mare is doing "ok" with him but she is clueless on what is going on!
Thanks for any input
