Product Description
When Blessed Are The Blood Mares was published in 1978, no other single source existed that contained such a wide range of information on the care of the breeding of mare from mating, through gestation, to foaling and nursing, and on the care of the young horse. Now there is: the second edition of this classic.

This book will give you an in depth view of what our horse Vets go through during the foaling season!! A great book with lots of information for anyone interested in equine reproduction.

One of the best books I own. Lots of detail and info for someone like me who is new to horses and even newer to foaling. It is easy to understand and although you are educated on almost everything that can happen the author reassures you of the rarety of problems. It has really helped me to prepare my broodmares and myself for the big day. I actually started out with Blessed are the Foals and then bought this one because it was so good.

This book has already been a handy reference. My mare is expected to deliver this summer. I'm excited and also nervous. It explains EVERYTHING that happens, and also what could go wrong. I would recommend this book to all horsemen and horsewomen. It's entertaining and informative.
For the serious broodmare manager... June 8, 2007
A. E. Van Schaick (Versailles, KY)
I really enjoyed this book, especially because it went into detail about what to look for in the neo-natal foal and post-partum mare. It gave distinct things to look for which helped enable me to make the decision to call my vet in the middle of the night, and eventually saved my colt's life. Indispensible book to have on the book shelf if you breed and foal your own mares. Another great thing about this book, is that it goes into detail about when to re-breed after foaling, when not to, and what steps you will go thru (explained) on how to get her pregnant. Not quite enough information for me on follicle size measurements, edema measurements, short cycling, etc., but for the most part, this is a must have book.

Provides people new to breeding a good overall view of the process. It is easy to read and a good reference. This is not the highly technical manual that would turn away the amatuer. At the same time it lacks depth to be a truly serious resource.
