So, I am a little nervous, excited, and well I am just unsure of how to handle myself. We bought a great mare today!! Perfect for my kids, she just happens to be bred. Looks to be about ready to pop. I checked when I got her home and she has no waxing and looks to be closed up so I don't think it will be in the near like week or so. Just wanted to kinda keep up with what is going on and maybe have some people to back me up and give me as much knowledge as I can take in. I have raised several foals so this aint the first but, still a nervous situation.
So.... this is what I know she is a 12 year old QH around 14.5 hh. The studs got in the pasture with her 2 times, the owner was unsure of which stud she is bred by. So, today starts the foal watching and waiting. Please join me for support!

I am hoping for a dark bay colt. I thought Athena for a girl but not sure. And for a boy we thought about Stetson. But, I'll come up with something different later. If I can get the owners to get back with me the baby will need a registered name that's harder.

She is breathing heavy still. You can hear it now. She stretched out raised her head and shook in her hind quarters. She is pretty mellow tonight though. So no easter foal, but an April fool's baby wouldn't be all that bad :) I'll check on her a few times tonight, but work my 13 hour shift tomorrow so I must sleep.

So I just went out in the field for a bit, noticed her standing off to herself. I am going to leave her out for another hour or so but here is her backend this evening. What do you all think? It is opening up as she walks this is her trying to squinch up because she did not want me to see but, she did not do a good job at hiding it.
