Actually, Mic: There is a German girl (about 25) who just contacted me. I'll send you her e-mail address tomorrow; I am too pooped right now.
I just found out that none of my five mares, who stood for Melnir as if in heat, is pregnant. Karen called it "false heat". I have never had any experience with that. With all the breeding I have done, this concept is entirely new to me. A standing heat (which is what the mares seemed to show) to me meant close to ovulation. Well we learn something new every day. I would appreciate input from anyone with experience with this. This is a hard learning experience. I was expecting up to five foals and there will be none.
