Huh how strange! That gives me some hope then! Rosie has been all over the place the past few days from looking elongated to not so much, cranky as can be with me touching her. Still nothing more than edema in front of her teats so I have started a new worry - do we have fescue and is that...

Lol oh no worries at all! Until Taz mentioned about recently gelded geldings, I was absolutely certain it didn’t happen here. To be honest I’m still pretty sure it wasn’t here - I never saw anything happen (not that that guarantees it didn’t) and he had zero interest in anyone. The place he came...

Rosie has been doing that on and off.

No worries! The “before” picture is on I believe page 12, if you need something to compare it to! My cloud must look absolutely awful right now, bad enough having a ton of pony ****s and belly pictures, now we’re adding vulvas into the mix 😅

Lol you just have to love the huge window for potential foaling hey, does wonders for our nerves and stress levels 😅 I still think our girls are on a similar timeline, so maybe you’ll be joining me in the sleepless night club very soon! But that’s great having the extra time with them to build...

That’s very true! Sure it would be fantastic to know if she was bred around the time of the auction or a few weeks before or whatever, so that I had more of an idea of how far along she is, but I’ll have to settle for “any time between today and September” 😅

Wow Taz! How amazing of you taking care of all those souls! I have a soft spot for the unwanted and downtrodden, hence why all mine are rescues too (apart from Rosie, unless you count auction as rescue also). We got a puppy from rescue last month and we have a rescue yearling quarter horse...

Thank you Elizabeth! I suppose I should be grateful that she’s at least showing some signs and isn’t one of those ones that just foal with no indication they were getting close. I will definitely check the colour. Uneventful night last night. Still no real udder to speak of, though this morning...

I’m sure I will be able to sneak one in when Lilly goes for hers. Absolutely I will keep you posted!

I had to leave not long after I bought Rosie, I just couldn’t stand to see so many beautiful animals being bought for slaughter. That was my first and last auction because it was just too emotional. That is so sad about that mare 😢 But what a wonderful thing you are doing giving animals a safe...

That’s just it hey, we could be talking days or weeks. Ah ok yes, that makes sense about the muscles/spine. Got the coffee brewing, I don’t see much sleep in my future lol

Oh jeez. I best set some alarms tonight then, and go make some changes to the arrangements out in the barn - right now Wish and Rosie are in a stall together that is open to a small paddock with a watering bowl. That’s good to know about the spine, I thought it was rather odd but yeah, her dock...

Rosie has decided to stretch out a lot in her back end this evening. I wonder if she’s not actually that loose back there yet though coz surely she can’t go from a bit of elongation, scrunched right back up, to long again in one day?! Not overly soft in her hind quarters yet but directly above...

If she got pregnant this summer, I highly doubt it would give her a belly like that! Woah she has grown!! Glad all is well.

Pitter Patter!! You’re back! So happy to hear from you, how are Snickers and Pepper?

Is everything ok with your girls, Pitter Patter? We haven’t heard from you in a while, hope all is well 💜

Oh yes I’ll definitely keep checking on her. I’m no stranger to sleepless nights as my husband often works away. And absolutely I will keep updating!

Hi Sandra! I’m also from the UK originally, welcome! Your girl has more in the udder department than mine does lol has she had foals before? Taz, all is well! Had a mini heart attack last night when I went to check Rosie around 1 am and she was lying down in her stall with the 3 mares all...

Absolutely I’ll let you know what happens. I don’t think she’s going to foal any time soon, but then what do I really know! I’ll just keep an eye on her and go from there. Won’t it be a turn up for the books if she’s not actually in foal and I’m just this crazy lady staring at her butt 😅
