  Discussion on Fescue and conception

Dear Dr O,

I thought I had read an article here a few months ago that talked about reduced conception rates for mares on fescue pasture. I looked for it today, but couldn't find it. I also saw that the article on fescue toxicity states that there doesn't appear to be a reduction in conception for mares on pasture. Has something changed or are those voices in my head acting up again?

Thanks!
Nancy

Currently I do not remember seeing any data on reduced conception for horses on fescue.
