My AQHA mare Charm is very close to foaling so I decided to make a thread so I can share with everyone. She is 10 years old and is due Feb. 1. But I wouldn't be surprised if she foaled a little early. This will be her 7th foal and after this baby she will get a well deserved break. She just started to bag up. And of course here are some pictures of my girl!
She is lovely and I look forward to following her progress
I am wondering though if either your mare or the stallion have ever been tested for frame overo. Just curious since they are both having the white on their face stretch wider above their eyes which is something the frame gene likes to do Posted via Mobile Device
Thanks so much, I really love this girl!
No, she has not been tested for it but the stallion has and he is LWO-N/N so there is no chance of a lethal white. And they are also HYPP N/N.
Here are some new pictures of Charm from today. Her bag is getting a little bit bigger but other then that no real change. The baby moves around alot! Poor Charm!
Since last night Charms bag has become much bigger and her tailhead and her vulva are more relaxed! Her milk is still yellowish but is getting cloudy and sticky. So hopefully I'll have a foal in a week or two!
