Dr Getty,
Thanks again for the Great advice! Since I first posted this I found that the seller has been unable to interest her in the stud so we will be picking her up and bringing her home at last. This will give us a chance to evalute her condition before deciding to go ahead with the breeding!
Thank you!

Hi Teresa,
That may be a blessing in disguise! This way you can have her examined to make sure she is healthy.
To help her conception rate, you may want to consider adding a concentrated source of gamma oryzanol in the product, Body Builder.
But, first things first -- see if she's healthy enough to sustain a pregnancy.
All the best,
Dr. Getty
