[QUOTE="Alan, post: 191433, member: 378"] You have gotten some pretty good advise in my opinion. Horses cycle about every 21 days or so. Watch for her vulva "winking" and that will tell you when she is in heat, although a lot of mares do it just after they urinate. If she was mine I wouldn't worry about the shot to bring her into heat I would just let your friend keep her, lots of times just teasing them with a stallion will bring them into heat. Cattleannie is right on the money with the two types of color patterns in paints. If the stud is an Overo you have about 50% chance of comming out solid or paint. Tobiano's have a better chance of being colored. Make sure you worm her and update her on the shots before you breed her. Coggins is wise also. You also want the vet to do a culture on her to check for infection, if she has a infection she won't hold the fetus, but it is easily cleared up with anti-biotics. Also do yourself and your friend a favor and have her checked for STD's. Don't want to give anything to the stud, or vise versa. Sounds like alot but it's not that bad. Good luck, Alan [/QUOTE]
