Have you had good luck with the p-test? I bought 20 just to see how they worked and every single one turned the pregnant green blue color, even my 100% open mares.

Which test was it that you purchased?  Doesn't sound very good!

I've not had any problems using the p tests, and this season of testings on the mares have been 100% accurate, so far anyway.

It was that P-test it's called. Mainly used on cattle I believe but everyone was trying it on minis here. There's a photo of the test at the beginning thread and I wondered iif you all decided yay or nay on the test. Didn't work out for me...

That's what I was thinking it was, since I remembered that people were going to try a new test.  So, we have one that is a vote for "no" if it was testing open mares as pregnant.  And one vote for a yes.

Anyone else try it?  What results did someone else get?

Yes it's the p test. So far a friend and I have gotten high % of accuracy, with one false neg( tested early) and 1 false positive. All my tests this season have been 100% accurate( to date)

New pictures almost 280 days!
Udder still tiny, swollen just a bit. Little bit of relaxation in the tail head but no other changes.
