| Echography
 
  
   In "Asinerie du Bocage", we regularly give 
              echography to all mares we think they in gestation.
 This has a two fold effect:
 - - to be sure the mare is fertilized. If she is not the veterinary 
              surgeon will try to find the cause, and propose a treatment if it 
              is necessary.
 - to control the twin pregnancy. Those are not recommended because 
              the foals can have problems, and it can use your mare prematurely. 
              Your veterinary surgeon will generally advise you to keep one embryo, 
              and will eliminate the second by pinching. This intervention has 
              to be done as soon as possible, and within three weeks.
 It is thus advised to give an echography to the mare 
              15 days after the covering, i.e. after the end of heat. 
               
                |  |     To give echography with good conditions, we 
                    installed a tubular corridor equipped with a shelf to put 
                    the echography appliance... |  Our veterinary surgeon printed echography photos between 14 days 
              to 3,5 months to allow us to discover the embryo's evolution:
