Thanks for the response. If I am counting correctly and counting the first day she had blood, the first breeding would have been on the 11th day (the first day she flagged), then the next consecutive days with today being the 4th tie day. They had one tie each day so far. I wasn't going to let them tie today, but she was still flagging.

This is her first breeding and she just turned two, so I was pretty right on with the date of the onset of her heat as when she came to us she was in heat already back in May. We were on vacation when she went into heat this time (fun) so I did not have the opportunity this time to take her to check her hormone levels.
