I take my hat off to ya Taz :) Are you thinking that there may be a problem ? ( just reading your post above)

Congratulations on your lovely filly :)

Agree to separate them if its a possibility until you have weaned and the mares milk has dried up :)

The Picture on the left could be showing the start of development. The one on the right looks like a maiden mares udder. The nipples looked tucked and pointed towards each other. Just went back and read your opening post. If they are both maiden mares then the pic on the left, I would say you...

Any frosts ? They are not a big fan of them. The other thing I thought of was snails or slugs?

Cant wait to see what your husband does at your new place , That barn at your old place is sensational :):):)

I agree with what others have said above. You should definitely treat them both as in foal. I agree with Taz re the black & white mares udder & some development. The other mares belly looks like shes carrying. Ask as many questions as you like here , everyones really friendly :)

Welcome to the forum :) Are you able to get a pic or two , standing directly behind them , down at their level say 5-10 meters back. It will give us an indication on how the foal is currently positioned. If you are able to a pic of their udder would be good too.

They are lovely and native to "where I am from" there are a few different species of them , the yellow ones are really lovely too. As willow flats said , give them a good cut back each year :)

fingers crossed 🤞

How is your little mare ? Is her udder starting to stay the same throughout the day ? :)

When I buy a new horse, I usually ask the owner what sort of "Trimming rotation" the horse is currently on. I have a couple that are trimmed every 4 weeks and an older mare that is every 12 weeks.

Welcome from Australia :)

Its illegal here too !

You know her better than anyone else and shes definitely giving you plenty of signs :)

I agree with Elizabeth, You have a little longer to go yet. Some mares hate having their udder touched , especially towards the end of a pregnancy.

He is a def keeper !!! Love the name you have chosen Elizabeth :)

How is she today ? :)

Looking at the photos you posted on the 22/5, she looks pregnant, shes a little lopsided. What I do want to say is that when a foal "drops" into position for delivery ( this is when the "V" shape is noticeable ) this is the position that the foal stays in until delivery . During all the years...

Oh Taz I know how bad a crappy hay season is. U til last year we had been thru it for a bout the last 5 years . It’s been really cold here for the last few days . I take my hat off to everyone of you that get snow , I think I’d struggle to live somewhere it snowed .
