We tried to breed her 5 or 6 times with A.I. and then just as we were about to give up, in fact the vet said we were wasting our time, because she was barren, we sent her to a different stallion for natural cover and she was Pregnant after one cover!! So sometimes it can work, she is a lovely Black Arab mare that had never had anything done with her, we were trying to breed her to a Friesian stallion. My son has just broke her as well, and she is doing great. We also had really bad luck trying to breed our Fjord with AI this year also. I'm hoping we can figure out a way to drive to Washington State and do live cover with Erlend this year. Tami
