I'm glad you chimed in, cause at first I didn't see the reason for the question. We sonagram the mares and pinch off the other egg before she ovulates. Yes, I agree, a stallion has much more value. That said, my best guess is to keep her on the track until she's 4 or 5. Sometimes it takes them a while off the track to get them back to cycling and the meds flushed out. As far as breeding, the mare brings out the best in the sire, imho. So there you have it. The "value" in the mare is sometimes not equal to the sire's, but she is at least half the story. I won't get into the "every other generation" stuff cause I think you already know that. |
