No idea if Roxy is producing colostrum or not, it’s white, not very sticky if that means anything? The vet said to take her off of it right now (which I did as soon as I saw it), and I’m feeding her hay cubes as the safest option. I’ve just been told to watch her very closely and have some...

Hopefully! But I’m currently having a freak out and on the phone with the vet as I just found fescue in my “fescue free” hay 😢

Lol well she’s been doing a fair bit of rolling, biting her sides, rubbing her butt on the wall. Butt muscles are getting slightly softer. All going in the right direction but slowly.

Minimal changes with Rosie tonight that suggest she’s going in the right direction, but nothing to get excited about just yet.

Same here, no news. But then it’s only approximately day 319 here so maybe things will liven up soon 🤞

Saw this and found it quite fitting for those of us still waiting, and those who have been through all of this before! The mare's secret code of honor is as old as horses themselves and is ultimately the species best kept secret. No mare shall ever produce a foal before it's time. (It's time...

Lol I have a feeling I’m going to be doing a lot of waiting! She doesn’t look particularly elongated but she barely seems to rest her tail down anymore, it’s always at least somewhat up/to the side, so she must be feeling something back there. Not much tail swishing though, only really to get...

I know hey, taking their sweet time lol Nothing is really new today, she’s peeing and pooping a whole lot more than normal yesterday, last night and today, but not really anything in the way of “classic” signs of imminent foaling, though of course she may not do much of that. Her flank...

Same here.

Thought I would add a picture of Rosie tonight. She’s becoming quite the wide load!

Holy that’s a big belly for a little lady! Does her current owner still think she is “maybe just fat” 🤣 that’s quite the udder too! Hopefully not much longer now!

Thank you :) She is having her hooves trimmed on Friday so that might be rather interesting given how grumpy she is. I will be very surprised if Pepper isn’t pregnant. And I just love the colours in Snickers’ mane and tail! Aww those names are lovely! I don’t have any yet, but I’ll know when I...

I wish Rosie would get sweeter with me! She is all happy and lovely if you’re at the front of her, but anywhere near her belly or back end and look out. I touched the bottom of her belly today and she kicked hard (missed me but still, not like her). Her belly is very hard, no squish to it all...

Thank you for the excellent information! It definitely makes me feel better about having a foal later in the summer. I’ll be getting a dog coat! In your experience, what sort of size would I need? That is what has been holding me back from getting one as I’m really not sure quite how little this...

I definitely understand your concern about keeping a baby warm in winter! If I use the auction as Rosie’s breed date, that would put her at 330 days on August 15th, and 345 days on August 30th, though of course she could before then or even after! I have informed my husband that if we have a...

Same here, nothing interesting, just a grumpy little pony. Sure missing my sweet little girl that was all loving and kid safe, now I’m even on high alert around her as she’s so grouchy. She wouldn’t even let me lift her feet.

I hope everything is ok Pitter Patter and that your girls are better soon!

Yes, she’s in her stall (which is connected to a dry paddock) with a hay net.

After doing a bit of research and walking through the paddocks that haven’t been grazed yet as we don’t have them properly fenced, there is indeed fescue in there :(

Ah how exciting!! Hahaha you know it’s time to leave her alone when she kicks the phone away lol little monkey! Rosie, or Fat Actress as I’ve taken to calling her as I’m still not fully believing she is in foal, looks like she has swallowed a giant watermelon. She just hates me touching her...
