| Breeding Question For those of you experienced breeders..... have you noticed a difference in female/male ratio by breeding only early in the cycle for females and later for males? With our horses, breeding early helps the odds of fillys and breeding later increases the chances of getting colts. |

| If it is the same as humans, the male sperm are faster but don't live as long so intercourse has to take place as close to ovulation as possible to increase the chance of a boy. For better chances for a female intercourse can take place further away from the time of ovulation. |
