New mare, in foal... Help

Pretty boys! Either way you will have a beautiful baby! Id love to see pictures of the soon to be momma as well please When is she due? Sorry...I might have missed it somewhere

She's due sometime in April, and there are 3 pics of her on page 2 of this thread... I'm hoping to get a new camera and get some new shots of her soon... She's looking a lot better now that she's eating regularly...

Found them! Shes beautiful! Looking forward to April! Thats going to be a stunning baby

Thanks, I'm a little anxious about it myself, seeing as how its her first foal and mine too...

She's not bad looking, but I wouldn't have had her bred... Her head is a little too large for her body, and her neck just looks funny to me, but that may be because i've been comparing her to my petite palomino...

Personality wise, she's a sweetie, we're just working through some issues with her being spoiled rotten by her previous owners and being extremely buddy-sour... But all the "arguments" about her leaving her buddy when we go out alone will go a long way toward building up her muscle tone so she doesn't have to much trouble foaling lol...

It sounds like she is doing good. I haven't been on in a while because of moving this last couple of weeks.

Equus - Hope the move went well... Storm is doing great, I'm just nervous about her complete lack of muscle tone... I need to get her worked into shape... A 20 minute walk carrying me around shouldn't cause her to sweat like she's run a marathon.... Granted 10 minutes of that was an argument about who was in charge, but still, she didn't fight me that hard...

Woot, just had the new farrier here, and Storm was fantastic for him!!! Sandy was even pretty good considering her history with farriers...

Got some new pics of Storm too, she's looking pretty good for a chunky butt lol...

She is looking good. I am glad that she did good for the farrier. It sounds like she has settled in really great. Did you ever get the book that I was telling you about? It really helped me out last year and it has also been a great help with Prancing timid's pregnancy so far.

Thanks, she's looking better every day... And no, I haven't got that book yet, but my birthday is Friday, so I should have it by nnext weekend...

And I still gotta call the vet to get her her shots, I'm only working 3 days this week, so I should be able to get that done Monday....

My paint mare I just got a couple months back from auction is supposed to be prego for april or may foal. My second foal. My first foal was with a mini and she did it by herself. The mother wouldnt let it nurse so I had my mother hold the mare and I helped the baby nurse.
We are an old cow farm-corn prices jacked and meat prices went down-so we all have had birthing expierence. As harsh as this sounds, I had to help pull out a calf so the mother could live. She wouldnt get up or at least roll over and push. She was so tired. The baby didnt make it. But the mother did. She became a good friend of mine too.
I dont even know how to tell if my paint is pregnant or not. She's extremely round. I dont want to pay for the vet to come out and tell me yes or no. I'm just going to wair until March and see what she looks like. If she appears to be, I'll put her in the milking parlor so it wont be breazy.
