Thanks so much Diane, baby gave me two huge kicks tonight. Poor Marcella, I usually don't even bother to feel for her baby, I know she'll most likely carry to term like she always does. Eclipse did have one live foal before I got her, so she can do it.

We are at day 231 for Marcella and day 225 for Eclipse. Elipse aborted at day 252 last year, so of course I'm on pins and needles as we get closer to that date; but I am convinced if we can make it past that we might make it all the way. I'll keep everyone posted. Tonight I was just spending...

Thanks Diane. I love his personality most of all, he is so laid back. Hopefully Eclipses foal will stay calm and quiet and the placenta will not detach.

Thanks guys, it means alot to me that you will help pray for Eclipse. We had an awful abortion at day 252 last year, I had to go in and turn the foal around and it had obviously been dead for awhile, Very sad, I am so hopeful that she can carry this one to term. Here is a summer pic of Doc...

It's not a real busy foaling season here for me, but as of right now I have 2 pregnant. Here is the stallion they are bred to. His name is Huybers Utopia What's Up Doc Both mares are black appy's. One is a minimal appy , her name is Marcella and the other is Eclipse. Marcella has had two...

I bought a colt from a "friend" 3 years ago. The paperwork had not been brought up to date on his dam so he was not registered. The dam was sold to another person, this person promised multiple times over the last three years to get the dams paperwork brought permanant and transfered into her...

a better picture of Carmels foal Ty. And then Buffy's foal Topper, and Dreams foal Faith. I think Faith is my favorite of all. I love her bum spot! It was a great foaling year, 3 girls, 3 boys. I'm very pleased.

I'll get better pictures soon.

Philly (the above foal) is out of my mare Fly who has lacing?. There seems to be a lot of dispute on whether It is indicative of her pinto or her appy parentage. Here is a picture of Fly's back when she is clipped out. and an interesting thing happened last night. I got home from a weekend...

WEll Fly foaled on Tuesday, June 2 (full moon) in the morning just before I went to work. How cooperative was that of her. I wasn't even late for work that day. Baby was a solid bay or so I thought until I took her out a few days later and notice a lot of white flecks on her rump and back...

Well Penny the maiden started labor last night. Her water broke, one foot appeared. She contracted HARD and not much happened. I went in but there was just barely the room for my squished up hand next to the one leg, I thought, oh no, there is no way a head and two legs are getting out of...

Well whatever colour he is he is quite striking, sure wish he was a girl, he'd be a keeper. Looking to keep one filly this year, if I get one. Fly's udder is quite huge this morning and milk is stickier and oilier than before. Not quite testing ready but we should be within 4 days or...

Here is the little darling. Any opinions on colour. He is strong and healthy, and nursed within 2.5 hours. Fly and Penny are up next but they are going to give me a few days break I think.

update for you all. LB's udders is completely rock hard, hot and nipples are filled. Can express, warm, oily, yellow, sticky milk testing at 85% chance of foaing in the next 36 hours (that was last night). So I'm figuring on a baby tonight or early tomorrow. Here's hoping. Also Penny the...

Sunday morning updates. LB's milk got real oily and syrupy last night but is back to just slightly sticky this morning so not yet. But we are certainly getting close, I'd say 4-8 days to first foal. So again, it's Penny, Dream, Ladybug, Carmel, Fly, and Buffy

Nothing yet, I'll get updated udder pics tonight. I've got 5 with sticky/oily milk. Should be getting a foal within a week I'd think. I was away to a driving clinic today so very happy to be home now and everyone held on to their babies for me. From now on it is only work and here for me...

I'd love to take part in a book like that. I have about 7 years worth of udder, belly, etc.. pics for all my broodmares. Update for today, LB is really ramping up here. Soft jello butt, with belly centered and very v'ed. Udder is pretty nice sized but nipples need to fill more. Milk is...

Here are their updates udders in order of appearance and their due dates. Penny buffy Dream Ladybug Carmel Fly

We are at days 293-308 today. All but two of the girls are making decent attempts at uddering. Dream, LB, and Fly have slightly oily/sticky milk. The other three have no milk yet. I'm guessing about 8 days from now I might get a foal or two.

Thanks Brody!! Ladybug and Dream have a good supply of yellowish/white milk which is starting to be sticky, so we are rolling along nicely still. Cams will be up at night from now on.
