- Obtain two sets of cultures from the clitoral sinuses and clitoral fossa with a minimum of 72 hours between obtaining the two sets of cultures.
- Obtain a swab from the endometrium. This swab may be included with either of the required sets of swabs, or in the case of a pregnant mare, this swab may be collected after foaling.
- The imported mare shall be the last mare bred during the current session.
- The next three mares bred to the same stallion shall have a C.F. test taken 15 to 25 days post breeding.
