My weather is almost the same as Mermaeve's as we are only about 2 1/2 hrs apart or so. About the same, maybe a bit more snow, but usually a little colder. Everyone except my two llamas and goat have coats on. (Goat keeps removing his even though he shivers!) All my equines have on blankets...

All of my animals roll around almost every day, depending on the weather. I wouldn't worry about rolling. If they do it in front of you or at your feet I think they feel comfortable with you :)

Will try again this weekend!

I am so, so sorry. I lost my little heart horse in late October. Only had her 7 months and she was such a love. It is heart breaking and I think about her all the time. We bonded almost immediately. Take some time to heal and know we are all thinking of you at this most difficult time.

THAT didn't work right at all!! Tried to delete it and messed that up too! Will get kids to help me...Sorry!

Hi all! Been experiencing tech issues in getting pictures of Snicker's underside to load from my phone. So here is one taken 1/31/21. Hopefully this works!

Stunning!

They are beautiful!!!

I think your list of what's "right" with it might be a lot shorter..LOL. I know ZERO about driving, but that is crazy.

Thank you Maryann! Good to know. Is an RH Factor Foal also like and RH human baby who is "attacked" by the mother's system in utero? I have powered colostrum on hand. Will that work as a substitute? I'm not fully convinced Snickers will have milk as there hasn't been much udder development...

Nope, just Snickers as far as I know. I'd be shocked if Patches were as she usually doesn't allow any of them to get too close yet, but you never know! Volt is not gelded and he is very sweet. He is small and pretty fine boned. Looks nice and is registered. Plan is to geld sometime this spring...

They can be allergic to their own mother's colostrum?! UGH, one more thing to worry about! I'm sorry about your loss, Ryan. That had to be heartbreaking.

I will try to get pictures soon. She's blanketed and it's going to be a very cold for the next week or so. She's not the most patient mini, but will get what I can!

I think you are right about Snickers probably being in her 3rd trimester. So scary! My confidence sure isn't very high after Cottontail's death and although my vet (the only vet locally) can be helpful, I can't help but think I can't rely on him so have more learning to do!! That being said, how...

OOps! Thought it was the old thread, but looks like a new one after you mentioned putting it in the right spot. Sorry everyone! Anyway, her belly is getting bigger and baby is still quite active. She is better about letting me feel her belly but have to watch her ears at the same time. I have...

She looks like she could possibly be, and I agree to treat her as though she is. I think I've been waiting forever on Snickers to deliver. It will test your patience!

Maewest4U, I am so sorry you and your little ones had to endure this! I had a similar experience with acorns and my minis. My oldest mini was 25 years old and we lost her. Vet insisted there is no problem with acorns and that I "worry too much." (Is that even possible?!) Ended up calling him...

Oh, she is very pretty! She looks like my Pepper. Are her eyes blue or brown?

Please don't feel badly about re-homing them. I actually still have a 20+ year old Welsh Cobb that I picked up many years ago because owner was going to shoot him (it belonged to his ex who left the country and he was quite bitter). Can't ride him-not safe. No one else was interested in him...

Must've heard how pregnant mares clamp their tails down!
