Want to terminate mare's pregnancy. Am told she can absorb her foal. How does this happen?

If the mare has been pregnant for less than 35 days the pregnancy can be terminated with the use of a single dose of prostiglandin. Essentially, this will disrupt the corpus luteum (primary producer of progesterone which maintains early pregnancy) and the mare will return to estrus in 5 to 7 days. The conceptus will pass out through the cervix during the heat cycle.

If the mare is 35 plus days in foal multiple doses of prostin will be required and often these mares do not return to estrus due to the formation of endometrial cups even if the conceptus is aborted.

Aborting a mare farther along in her pregnancy is more problematic but can still

be done.

What color will the foal be out of a bay dun mare breed to a white?

Bay Dun Mare: AaEeDndn, AAEeDndn, AAEEDndn or AaEEDndn if it is heterozygous for the dun allele.

50% of the foals will be dun in this instance. If the mare is homozygous then

the foals will be 100% dun.

If by white you mean grey then 50% of all foals produced will turn grey independant of their initial birth color. Assuming that the stallion is heterozygous for grey (G).

If by white you mean dominant white (W) 50% of all foals produced will be white (there is an ongoing debate about the exsistence of the W gene from what I recall). Since the presence of this allele masks other coat color genetics the white parent may carry any assortment of alleles that affect the color of the

foal.

If by white you mean maximum expression of Sabino (Sb) the foal could have many variations of white patterning from hardly any to almost completely white in conjunction with the various base and dun dilute combinations mentioned.
