We are on foal watch. and have been for the last week. She is a maiden so not sure what to expect. She has been bagged up for the last 5-6 days... tailhead is all jelly... and her vulva has been very "floppy" Last two days she has had a lot of loose stools. Here is a pic of her in the arena today. Her baby "bump" looks pretty noticable. Hope its tonight
nope. still no baby. I didnt get a photo of her today was busy installing a security system. She looks miserable. she is well dropped and droopy in the rear. i think she is holding out!
Not sure. she was bred feb 7-8 for sure, but possibly was bred in march also (one unreliable source said they saw her bred) she was in pasture with stallion. I'm thinking the march breeding mustve happened since we still dont have a baby. she still isnt waxing but has been showing all other signs for a week or so now. So im predicting by valentines day maybe
Kansas herself was 3 weeks late. so lets hope she doesnt go late. We cut off fescue hay over 4 months ago so fescue hay toxicity is not a possibility
it's not the grass it's the fungus on the grass that causes the problems. here's a link with a brief run down on it. Fescue Toxicity & Horses | eHow.com
The baby is here! I left out of town late this evening for a dog show in indiana. Hubby called me at 1130 saying the baby was here. He saw the cam and there was something else on it and rushed out there!!! Its a filly! carbon copy of momma. Pix to follow!~
Awe! Shes adorable! What a good momma. I think her name should be Carbon because she is an exact carbon copy of mom! Awe! Posted via Mobile Device
