Update Baby: Good Evening.... Baby has made no changes in the last week Baby is at 355 days today I have checked and doubled checked her breeding dates and the only days she bred was April 10,12,14 and 16.. Baby is HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know she can't keep that baby to herself forever!!! I am hoping she will share her bundle of joy with us SOON Thanks for watching with us..
The mares continue on their journey to foaling. The situation is really complex here as we deal with special mares and their necessary care.
Sabrina could foal whenever she makes up her mind. Everything is ready but milk production. She has a nice size bag but we can only express a few drops of fluid.
Brightside has developed a bag rather quickly and seems to be making noticable change every day. She is a mare we will watch very close because she has a tight cervical opening. She was carefully examined and we got medical opinions from many qualified doctors and breeders before she was bred. We felt comfortable that she would deliver safely. We will, however, have our vet very involved in her delivery to be ready for any complication that might arise. She is "flat napping" a lot and setting off the beeper.
Curly Sue has a orange size bag and seems to still be a week or so from foaling.
Dinah and Curly Sue are pretty close in developement so I think we have a week or so.
Star, due the 9th, is a veteran mare and is building a bag and will probably progress quickly and may foal before any of the maidens.
Dazzle has not started building a bag and she generally does. so I think she is still some time away.
Two more mares, Sarah and Florence pass the 300 day mark this week so they join the drama.
Our new camera should arrive from Saddlebrook tomorrow and we will get it installed quickly so we can see two more mares.
The camera will change from one mare to another depending on what is happening with each one.
I will give a description you can jot down and know who you are seeing
Sabrina Solid Sorrel Curly Sue Sorrel Pinto Brightside Fleabitten gray (may appear white) Dinah Black Pinto Star solid black Dazzle Dapple Gray
Sarah and Florence will not appear on the site until they are closer
Stay tuned and help us wait and watch unsure.gif watch and wait unsure.gif
Update Shoshone: No changes here tonight but Lilly at SevenAcres is testing an immediate five on her milk strips and will probably foal toight. It is earlier than Debi would like to see her foal. Wishing them a safe and easy delivery and a healthy baby.
Update Lucy, Jeannie, Eleanor & Lexie: well no wax on anyone.
Lucy is pretty dialated and her Who Hoo is very puffed out. 344 days right now. (Hello Lucy are you listening?)
Jeannie was supposed to be due today. Jeannie did not like the board on the door being down last night, so I put it back up. She does not like it up either. MARES! She is normally the wussy mare in the pasture & today was the aggressive mare out there. mood change!
Eleanor & Lexie are due the 15th and both are maidens.. so ... they can come anytime too.
all .. who knows.. anything can happen .. but I am on the couch...
Update Maggie: ohhh maggie. i have seen way to meny babie now and not yours.
Let's see the action tongiht so far, pacing, butt pushing, tail swinging oh and she's very warm. She is not happy at all tonight, In fact i was yelling at her for her nastyness when i was out there. I do not put up with back talk She was not happy about it, nor was i.
So another night of staring at maggie. maybe she will do more then stand in her corner
Update Daffy: We were able to get plenty of fluid for milk strip test tonight - is showing 3.5 now. That is definitely a change from last night from not enough to test to plenty of fluid with no problem.
Don't know how she will progress from here or how fast - but we will keep our eyes on her.
Update Mari: Not a whole lot of change. Mari still close. Anytime. No wax yet. I'll do another check after I catch some zzzzzzzz's for a couple of hours
Zo ik heb ook weer een heel rijtje op staan: Aardbeitje, Macy/Myron/Copper, Curly Sue/Sabrina, Lacey, Dotti, Lilly en Misty. Nu kan ik bijna niets meer doen op de pc
Copper is weer buiten, ik heb haar eerst nog even weer rondgeslingerd. Ze had weer dikke achterbenen maar gelukkig wordt het door het stappen en korte stukjes draven een stuk dunner. Later vandaag nog maar een keertje doen dus Dan zal ik de cam ook weer op de bak zetten.
