It was a bit wet! But well done to Bruff Point to point.

Why do we scan mares so many times? This mare ovulated two follicles at about a day between them. And here we have spotted twin pregnancies. Sometimes the second pregnancy is too small to detect at the first scan and could go unnoticed 😱 We can “pinch” one so that the mare can continue a normal safe pregnancy 🐴 Why is this so awful?? Mares are not designed to carry twins to full term and will often abort both pregnancies ☹️ and most that carry to full term will produce smaller than expected foals and there may be some scary complications at foaling 😱. #preventionisbetterthancure #alwaysscanagain When to scan? Day 16, day 18 and a heartbeat at day 28/30 #dooneenequine #studvet #dooneenvets
