Re: [RC] ultra sound - heidiThis particular mare has had three more foals for me and she's always been pretty close to her due date since then, so who knows what really happend in that first experienced with her? Was she in foal to the same stallion with this one? Don't forget that the foal is the one that determines gestational length, not the mare. And that the foal gets half of its genetics from daddy. Our family that routinely takes a year or more all trace back to my foundation stallion--he had such an impact on due dates that virtually every mare bred to him took close to a year. Didn't matter how long their gestations had been by other stallions. I am still seeing the tendency in his grandkids--doesn't matter whether they are by his son or out of one of his daughters or granddaughters...
