Horse Breeding: Older Maiden Mares

If you have any concern about breeding your older maiden mare, then you’ll want to download Older Maiden Mares.

In this FREE e-book, veterinarians Drs. Thomas R. Lenz and Joe Noble cover horse reproduction topics such as:

• Age – what is the best age to breed a mare, and how old is too old?

• Your mare’s cervical health

• Anatomy changes as a mare ages

• A mare’s heat cycle: estrus and random anestrus

• Embryo donor problems

• Breeding soundness exams

When  it comes to breeding older maiden mares,  sure age is a big factor, but reproductive health is as well. The mare may be in her prime, but if her body isn’t ready, then that’s a challenge the horse owner has to overcome. In Older Maiden Mares, Drs. Noble and Lenz tackle reproductive challenges often found in older mares, and they offer solutions so you can reach the end goal – a healthy mare and foal 11 months after breeding.  

Put all your worries aside and download this FREE e-book on breeding Older Maiden Mares.
