Sadly, I found a tiny, 3 inch fetus that one of the mares must have JUST aborted before I stepped out back.
It was still safely inside it's tiny bubble. I checked the gestation chart and figured it was between 60 and 80 days of development. I narrowed it down to one of 4 mares that were bred between 60 and 80 days ago, but I could not definitively figure out which of the 4 it came from. I know time will tell which one it belonged to. My question is does anyone know if the mare that lost it will come back into heat still this fall? I know there is something about hormones in the system after a certain length of pregnancy that will keep the mare's system thinking it is pregnant. I really want to figure out now (without having to palpate/ultrasound all 4 mares) which one it was so she can be checked out and flushed and ready be rebred in the spring.
