Herein, 65% of the jennies displayed profile 2 and foaled with a mean acidic pH of 6.4 ± 0.02. Conversely, 32% of the jennies showed a fast reduction in the pH of mammary secretion (profile 1) from day -1 (7.3 ± 0.2) to the day of foaling with an average pH of 6.6 ± 0.08. One jenny foaled with high and alkaline pH (i.e., 7.5). There were weak and negative correlations between pH and Ca2+, Mg2+, and K+ (P less then .05). In addition, Ca2+ displayed a weak but significant correlation with Mg2+, Na+, and K+. In conclusion, daily pH measurements of the mammary gland secretions can predict foaling in jennies, whereas Ca2+ was not as useful. Contrary to horses that most mares present a fast pH profile, most jennies showed a slow pH profile. The sex of foal did not affect the gestational length and fetal/maternal and fetal membrane proportions in donkeys.Cooling out horses is a common practice after intense exercise. Typical cooling procedures include both walking and drenching (often with scraping). The cool out is performed to ensure the horses physiologic responses returned to a baseline range as quickly as possible. The use of water in cool out provides the greatest potential for removing heat from the animals. However, adding air velocities that can increase evaporation rates from the horses can potentially increase the rate of cool out; thereby reducing the time until the horses' physiologic measurements return to baseline. This study measured the rate of cool out for 7 Thoroughbreds, which were run on the track for 1 or 1.5 miles. Animals were provided a combination of walking and drenching in addition to 3 fan treatments no fan, fan directed at lateral side, and fan directed at posterior. Physiologic responses were analyzed using the Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA)
