Not a sanitary pad, just a tampon, not so absorbant.

hmm, if you did the test close to the 120 days I would have said positive for certain. But if you ran it just recently it seems odd that you did not get a very clear result. I would contact your distributor. I'm in Canada but my distributor always sends me a new test for free if I get wonky...

Or even better is a tampon. I use duct tape , going around the belly in front of the back legs and then from the side around her bum and tape to the other side. Then tie the tampon in the center under her tail. You will have a lovely, clean sample in a few hours.

You can collect it from the shavings, if I see them do it I go in right away and gather the shavings and squeeze the pee out of them. You don't need much just a tiny bit.

I thought I'd update this for anyone who might come across this problem. The history of the mare was that she was taken from a barn that had no lights (yup none) and never was allowed outside for years. She went all summer wth not a sign of seizure and all the sudden this fall she was on the...

Hey Holly, I've used the weefoal 38's and got 50% success wth them. All the wrong ones were negatives though. Never had a false positive. From what I understand, negative can sometimes mean positive with the 38 day test. LOL. Might as well hire a psychic, you might get better results. I...

Can't wait to hear the results.

Yes Kimberly, I'm going to be going a bit nuts I'm afraid. But hopefully the three weeks will pass quickly and the mommas won't go way overdue. I've got a show in the end of June that I want to be able to go to.

Is that a weefoal 38 or 120. I'm seeing two lines.

Sounds like Tilly is due the same time as my 7 girls. Are you putting your girl up on camera? We can watch together. amanda

Make sure your mare would be over 120 days from last breeding though, even 125 days would be better. The closer you are to 120 the greater the chance of error. I've had great success with these tests. Opps, I see now that she was 120 days back in December. Then you should get a very clear...

thanks everyone. I've only got 3 foaling cams so I'm sure it will be a real juggling act to catch them all in the act! I might have to look into buying another one.

I've got a total of 7 mares due in May 31st to June 20th!! I'll need any eyes that anyone can spare at that time. Lord help me. I did not plan on breeding all the mares, but my hubby decided one day he was sick of listening to the stallion holler and he put him in with them all. I thought...

I've had two mares test negative with weefoal38 and be pregnant. Wait until you mare is 4 months along then test with weefoal 120. I've never had that test be wrong yet.

She's close, good luck. I've got one at pH 6.8 with a vulva like that too. It's hard when you know it's close but still could be days away, or minutes. LOL

Buffy's milk is now testing at the beginning stages of ready on the Mother Natures test strips. And on the pool strips the pH is 6.8 and the hardness is 500. The milk itself is the consistancy and appearance of Elmers Yellow Glue (all us older people can relate to how that looks and feels)...

Buffy's milk is now easier to express, got enough to test and it was pH 7.8 and hardness 250. Consistancy is oily, yellow and sticky. With any other mare in my barn i'd be on medium alert but Buffy has always gone to the white milk stage and even dripped for 24 hours once, so she'll go a ways...

Buffy's udder is maxed out but her nipples are still pointing in and not filled, so she has a few days to go I'd say. Nellie is just chilling and waiting for everyone else and then she'll get herself in action. Here is Buffy's udder, day 334.

Well Fly dragged me through the entire long weekend with no sleep. She read the foaling book and she was gonna follow it by gosh. She waxed, dripped milk and had pure lovely white milk by the time she finally decided to foal Sunday at 930pm. Another lovely pinto colt, looks a whole lot like...

Progress is being made. I'd say Fly will go possibly tonight, but more likely tomorrow night. Her nipples are filled nicely, udder is a little deflated from being outside all day but those nipples are twice as big as this morning. AND her milk is changing, pH is about 7.5 and hardness is 250...
