Update Megan: NO MEGAN HAS NOT HAD THE FOAL. THE CAMERA WENT OUT AND WE SWITCHED MEGAN AND SWEET PEA SO WE COULD SEE HER. WHEN CAROLYN GETS HOME WE WILL GET HER BACK IN THE RIGHT STALL. OUR CAMERAS ARE DIFFERENT AND CAROLYN HAS GOT TO SHOW ME HOW HERS WORKS.
WHEN SHE GETS OVER TO THE FAR LEFT IT IS HARD TO SEE BUT WE WOULD KNOW SHE WAS LAYING DOWN. I THINK DON'T ANYTHING WILL HAPPEN TILL LATER AND BY THEN WE WILL HAVE EVERYTHING BACK TO NORMAL.
Update Brandi: This morning at 1:26 a.m. I had drifted off to sleep and was woke up by Stephany in NY who called to let me know that she had received a high-alert on Brandi and didn't see anyone in the stall with her.
Imagine my surprise!!! Brandi was laid out flat, but she was sleeping - at least on my TV she was.
The only explaination I have for this is..... earlier in the evening when I was on the phone with Angie at J&A Farms, I tried to send a high alert for her mare Rain. However, when you hit high alert a window comes up warning that only the site owner can send a high alert and it asks for a password.
Angie did not know what the password was, so I emailed FoalNet and explained the situation to them. Then at 1:20 a.m. we all received the email stating that Brandi was in labor. Immediately prior to that I received to emails from the FoalNet administrator, so I believe they just misunderstood my email and thought it was a Mulligan's Run Horse.
I apologize for the confusion and the disappointment you may have experienced. I hope that you will continue to watch and that this experience will not deter you.
Update Rain: Rain is now testing a fast 5 on the strips Everything looks ready, we are just waiting on Rain to let us see her little bundle of Joy We are watching Rain very close Heather will send out a high alert when she is in Labor Thanks for watching
Update Megan: WE HAD SOME CAMERA GLITCHES TODAY AND I COULD NOT RESOLVE THEM FROM WORK. I AM HAVING GREAT DIFFICULTY WITH INTERFERENCE ON MY WIRELESS CAMERAS. I AM CONSIDERING INSTALLING A NEW WIRED SYSTEM BEFORE I START TRYING TO WATCH FOUR MAIDEN MARES IN MARCH!!
I'M SURE MEGAN ENJOYED HER DAY OUT AND IF SHE WAS ANY OTHER MARE, AFTER WATCHING HER FOR THE LAST 30 MINUTES, I WOULD SAY WE WOULD HAVE A FOAL TONIGHT. SHE IF SQUIRREL FLICKING HER TAIL, KICKING HER BELLY. I TESTED HER MILK FOR THE MILLIONTH TIME AND IT TURNED 5 SQUARES IN 15 SECONDS. THE BOOK SAYS THAT SHE SHOULD THEN FOAL WITHIN 6 HOURS. BUT SHE HAS BEEN DOING THAT SO WHAT DOES IT MEAN?????? WHO KNOWS.
STAY TUNED UNLESS YOU HAVE A HOT VALENTINE DATE WITH YOUR SWEETIE! THEN TAKE IT FROM AN OLD CHICK, wink.gif PASS UP WATCHING THE PREGNANT HORSE AND SPEND TIME WITH YOUR SWEETIE. wub.gif
SOME OF US WILL BE HERE WATCHING AS USUAL sad.gif AND WE WILL LET YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS.
