This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (BRIAN C JACOBSEN) To Duane Trupiano, Nice to meet another veterinarian on the list! I guess you have already seen that Steve and Amy White are veterinarians. My wife Barbara and I are as well. What type of practice do you do? Thanks also for your input on evaluations. It's helpful to know that the traveling evaluator system can work.

gestation length in Fjords
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (BRIAN C JACOBSEN) I have often wondered what the average gestation length is in Fjords. Even though we have raised many foals over the years, I have never calculated an average. Mainly the reasons I haven't are that fewer than 20% of mares foal on their due date anyhow (this is data from all breeds), and watching the mare's physical changes is more reliable than just going by a due date. Still, it would be a little helpful to know. Would you all consider participating in a straw poll? Using the last breeding date as the starting point for the calculation, how long was your mare's gestation length? Was it her first foal? Which state (or province or country) did she foal in? (If you want to provide data for more than one foal, please list them separately.) If we get enough responses to make a representative sample, I'll tabulate them and post what we find out.

Re: Foals
This message is from: SSlotness [EMAIL PROTECTED] The foal (actually weanling) died of a ruptured bowel at 6 months old,OnChristmas! The bowel ruptured at a site of one of many lesions caused by Actinobacillus equuili. I don't know how the bacteria took over so greatly, since it is a comon bacteria that lives everywhere. The vet said she was healthy looking otherwise.

Re: Foals
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Amy K White) It sounds like you just had a bit of bad luck. I had a mare that died of that same cause. It may be from migrating parasites or possibly suppressed immunity from stress or illness. Either way, no need to be discouraged. It probably will never happen again. -Steve On Fri, 8 May 1998 20:10:17 EDT SSlotness [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: This message is from: SSlotness [EMAIL PROTECTED] The foal (actually weanling) died of a ruptured bowel at 6 months old,OnChristmas!
