Okay so here’s the thing with feeling her that makes me believe she’s preggo even more. She DOES NOT like it when I put my hand on her belly for more than like 5 seconds, she looks around and tries to kick her belly. Could she be feeling the foal when she kicks as I take my hand off? Like could...

So here are some updated photos from today! Wasn’t able to get an udder pic, well actually my camera probably won’t fit under her belly as my camera is too big, but I’ll see if I can get some from my phone tomorrow 😁

Thank you! I know she’s super sweet haha, little miss sassy pants though also haha

Oh cool! Lol yeah lots of horse privates lmao 🤣 that’s hilarious. I’ll probably give that a go!

Thanks! She’ll be here in roughly 20 minutes but it’s kinda chilly so we’ll see what happens lol. I’m hoping to sort of keep an online journal here and also just for myself so I can see all the changes later, thanks for that idea too!!

Hey everyone! I just bought a little mare, she’s bred to a little silver dapple! She’s five years old, buckskin and maiden. She’s coming today so can get better pics then. Tell me what kind of pics you guys need, she’s definitely bred though! In this photo it’s hard to tell, but I went to see...

I’ll probably need to hardwire it, the wifi is horrible out here. Cool cool, I love the idea of a live stream lol

Oh okay, that’s what I thought but always good to double check! Thanks! Any recommendations for cheap camera systems that maybe at the max cost $100? I may only breed once but I don’t know, but I don’t want to spend an arm and a leg for only one baby ya know?

Okay gotcha, how much is it to test for dwarfism? And also if the stud is tested for dwarfism do I have to test the mare? I’m definitely planning on test whichever mare I end up getting for LWO!

Thank you so much! With the stallions, I’m not buying them but I just have a few options that I really like to use for a stud fee, definitely not buying any haha. I would 99% keep the foal and have fun training it and stuff. Does UC Davis let you test for dwarfism? Also, the mare I’m looking at...

Gotcha. How much are both of those tests on average? Yeah, I’ve heard more of false pregnancies in dogs but I guess really any species can have them!

Interesting…she definitely looks pregnant to me! Lol love that she’s due someday. I’m in Canada and cannot find where the heck to get wee foal tests! I would like to try one when I have a pregnant mare (hopefully if breeding goes well that will be this summer🤞🏼) but yeah can’t find it anywhere!

I have a question, how did you confirm your mares were in foal? Did your vet do a blood test, or ultrasound or other? I know some vets don’t like to do internal ultrasounds on minis, and I’m wanting to learn so that’s why I’m asking :)

I don’t have a pregnant mare yet, but I may have found a home for my gelding that I need to sell to make room for a pregnant mare lol. So I’m looking for advice on how to properly care for a preggo mare, like what to feed/if to feed/when to feed, should I get ultrasounds/bloodwork/pee tests...

Nope nothing new. Though my great uncle who has raised minis for 15 years is gonna come out tomorrow and see what he thinks. I’m doubting anything right now though

Not really, my great uncle is coming out to check her soon though, he’s bred and raised minis for many years so I guess we’ll see what he says.

Lol 😂 love that. I’m gonna go crazy when I do that in the next few years too. That sure would make it lots easier!

Ahhh gotcha. Soon then I hope! You going crazy yet or was that a while ago? Lol

She will eventually! Are there any more signs that she’s giving you? Getting more of an udder, more uncomfortable, anything like that?

Lol I got this notification and I’m like DID SHE HAVE HER FOAL?! And then…nope lol 😂
