3 out of 4

I just got off the phone with Dr. Hoerr and 3 of the 4 mares he artificially inseminated are in foal, the 4th mare he discovered a marble in her uterus. Dr. Hoerr said some people use to put a marble in a mare's uterus to stop a mare from coming into estrus. The funny thing is that the owner either forgot it was done or bought the mare with the marble in place. Dr. Hoerr will have to remove the marble, then short cycle the mare to get her in foal. Tomorrow morning I am driving to Morton, IL to pick up for sure one mare and maybe a second if she is in season to be bred to Raven. We are really having a GREAT summer.
