I love all of these! I haven't laughed this hard in a long time!! Thanks!

I seem to randomly get a lovely case of hay mites once in a while. Doesn't seem to affect the horses, just me. It looks terrible, like hives, poison ivy, etc. They are microscopic and I don't feel the bites, but about an hour after contact I have red spots everywhere! It looks awful and even...

This is new information for this novice! How do these plans for horses work? Do they pay the vets directly, reimburse the owner for money already paid out, or ?? And does the vet have to be "participating" like with us silly humans? Just thinking it might encourage my vet to actually call me...

Pepper's sides have narrowed considerably. No other changes. Maybe she's waiting for Spring! Her belly has "V'd" so many times I've lost count. I don't think she's quite ready though. Udder comes and goes. Ugh! Just terrified she's going to foal at the worst possible time of year and no barn...

Here are a couple of comparison photos I just found..... The first is July 8. The second one is Oct 2.

Tried to get selfie with Jasper, but I look horrible. We were side by side but he surprised me at the list minute and threw himself under my chin! Such a lover!

Anxiously waiting on news with Belle! So excited for you! Waiting for my girl to give in and foal one of these days. Storm to move in tonight, so maybe?? Can't wait to see your foal pics!!!

So, In August this poor girl looked REALLY pregnant. Here she is on Nov 17. She is absolutely huge. (Although a very thick coat of winter hair has come in). Udder still not fully developing (at least as far as I know...I've been really sick and forgot my camera last couple of times I intended to...

Hey, Taz! You know you are not alone! Been waiting on Pepper to foal since we figured out she was pregnant in August! She looks less pregnant now, but still very obvious. I never thought a winter baby would be in the works! Yikes. I don't know as though she's ever going to have this one! Maybe...

Still waiting the long wait! Trying to be patient but it's hard when rough weather could start up at any time. Anytime now would be great. Off sick from work for the weekend. (Not COVID, thank goodness-already been there). Just sinus and lung infections. Likely from wearing masks all the time...

Congratulations!! I came to this thread too late. What a beauty your girl is!!

I had a little female Welsh Cobb that came to me with heaves. She was already older and pretty fragile. My vet had me use wet hay for a while but that didn't seem to help. He then figured it could be the hay. Poor little thing was allergic to hay in it's natural form (could have been dust...

I'm still waiting for a foal. At this time she looks to be getting much closer, but would've conceived sometime in December if she is. Even later if foal comes after the next couple of weeks. We think she may have had a miscarriage last fall/winter. (Fully formed fetus, just tiny). This is...

I'm right there with you guys! I have a black mare who we didn't fully realize was even pregnant until August. We realized Pepper had gained too much weight so scaled back the feed and PRESTO-a VERY pregnant mare! She looked more "due " in August than she does now. I do know she is pregnant and...

She's still hanging on to that baby! (and driving her human crazy in the process!) Everything is coming along nicely and she looks ready to go often, but then takes it back. She has had several V belly days and then it disappears by the next day. Beginning to wonder if she isn't just fully...

Still a ways to go. Sometimes it's getting there and then disappears. Then comes back again the next day. Had a V belly last night but nothing now, just a round, dropped ball look.

She seems to be getting pretty close, how close I can't exactly say (of course!) but I do have her on foal watch. Was hoping for that tiny miracle while I had a few days off from work, but apparently she's going to make me wait it out a bit longer! Pretty sure within the month, most likely in...

Absolutely beautiful horses!!

You could try to sell on Etsy 😁

Hi Arianna! Welcome to the club...foal watch club that is! I know very little but we did have our first foal April 22nd. I waited all year basically for the foal ( I was WAY off!). I have another one due soon-ish?! Don't worry about a pregnancy diagnosis, I know you will, but don't let that...
