I am on pins and needles. I am trying a ET with my daughters favorite show horse. She was bred after having a double ovulation. This doubles the chances of one and there is a possibility of two! I used frozen semen from Diarado and vet said the semen looked "excellent". This mare will be flushed on Saturday.

My Contender mare is at the repro vet waiting to be bred back to Catoki and has two follicles also. Almost makes me think on ET's with her two as she did get in foal with twins using frozen semen. We had to pinch one and it was successful.

I need tons of fertility dancing and anything else you can think of!!!! :D:D:D:D

Do you have another mare to be a surrogate if you end up with two? Good Luck!!

Thank you everyone. If we get two embryos with the ET they will go in two mares. I have wanted to breed this mare forever so I am nervous as can be. I will update after the flush on Sat. :winkgrin::winkgrin:

Contender mare was bred to Catoki this morning. The Catoki foal she has by her side by far is the best foal I have had so far. :winkgrin::winkgrin:

I am completely jealous of you using Diarado! He was in the back of my mind this year but didn't fit the mares that I'm using. What kind of mare did you use him on? Good luck, fingers crossed for 2 tiny specs in the flush.

Thank you all. The mare is large framed and needs some "prettying up". She is an absolutely awesome jumper and was successful in the 6 yr Old YJC and has been shown successfully in the Hunters for the past few years. I have been told that Diarado needs a mare with a good size frame and height. This mare fits that scenario so I am very excited for the outcome. I think I will pass out if we get 2!!!! :eek::eek:
