What I see as the main issues are: 1) how the mares are kept during the

salt buckets and lot´s of water during the time
they are taken blood from them. And then the
veterinary come´s one´s a week and all the mare´s
are put

thoose that are healthy and pregnant with the right amount of hormon will go
on
not what the foals are used for but the BLOOD, what is it used for,
thats what I am wondering, since hormones for women come from urine,

in PMU horses, they usually used draft horse mares because they
