[a mini dream come true]

Good morning All,

OOOPS, Sorry I didn't think of the time differences

. I will definately take pics of Mr Wags visit to the barn this afternoon and post so everyone can see how much he has grown

:rofl .

Renee, there won't be too many surprises with me, either dogs of horses. Can't have cats because of the dogs

.Any poor cat shows up and it doesn't stay long

. It says "this is not the place for me", and high tails it outta here.

:rofl

.

Will post updates this afternoon. Everyone have a good evening/day.

 

[Lindi-loo]

Diane, Had to come in and give Dalton (grandson 3yr old) bye hugs and kisses he's off back to his mom's.

He is a huge help and was'n't ready to leave.

Mr. Wags was the prim and proper one. The other one running around like a crazy woman is his half sister. She is a short hair and 2 weeks younger than Mr. Wags.

Mr. Wags is the lap lover and she is the fisty little squirt. I'll try to get them all together for a pic to post and label each one. Got to go finish feeding.

 

[a mini dream come true]

That's ok Diane, Oh and it was me out there instead of my daughter

. Thanks for the compliment!!

Let me see if I can get the pics uploaded and posted.

 

[a mini dream come true]

Here is Mr Wags. He can move

But he likes to save his energy for the important stuff.

Nest is his sister the black and tan

She was just taking a break. She is also very inquisitive. Then we have the tan sister

Nest we have Cocoa and her daughter the other short haired girl on the cam with Mr. Wags

.

Cocoa is not much bigger than Mr. Wags and her daughter will stay small like her.

 

[a mini dream come true]

Thank you Diane

Dalton is quite the little helper. He is the one that loves to show and doesn't want anyone to help. He always says "I got this". He's been dragged by a dog, run over by pigs, kicked by minis and he still gets up and says "I got this" and away he goes again.

:wub He has no fear. It's "lets do it". or "ok, we can try that again"

:rofl Got to love his spunk

:wub

 

[cassie]

[MeganH]

omg they are SO adorable!!

 

[a mini dream come true]

Sure Diane, that is no problem.

Cassie, Delilah is about the same not much change.

Who knows with this one.

Thank you Megan. Right now I have 4 little ones and 5 big ones and that is too many for any one person so three little ones are looking for new homes

 

[Lindi-loo]

:wub Awww Mr Waggs is just adorable

:wub just feel he need to pick him up and kiss that fruit pastel nose

:wub and those cutie chubby feet just melt me

:wub

 

[AnnaC]

Oh Hazel, do forgive me. I had completely forgotten about you having those gorgeous puppies!

(in fact I hope you, my friends, will forgive me for my errors, muddled posts etc right now - so much going on here that I can barely form any normal mental thoughts! Hopefully the next couple of weeks will get things sorted (or not!!) and life can return to a more normal keel.

)

Mr Waggs is absolutely gorgeous and so are his sisters - cant believe how much they have grown, how old are they now? How can you bear to part with any of them - I can well remember how I felt as I watched the pups I bred in the past packing their little suitcases and setting off into the wide world with their new families. Of course it has to be done and I knew that the new owners were thrilled with their new babies, but...........oh how empty and quiet the place seemed afterwards.

More pictures please.

 

[a mini dream come true]

Not to worry Anna, with our busy lives and trying to keep up with all the mares and due dates. No wonder we're known as the nutty bunch

:rofl

:rofl

Delilah may have a little edema in front of her udder. BWDIK. I really can't tell any difference in the way she has been the last couple of weeks.

 

[a mini dream come true]

Here is pic of Delilah's udder. no filling, but what do ya'll think?

Well I do see she needs another batheing

 

[cassie]

not much happening yet... I need to bathe Penny tonight again too... I noticed today it was harder to get right down in that crack... so I don't know if thats the start of something... I think thats how Suzie started lol here's hoping...

is delilah good at letting you check and clean and all the rest?

do you know how long she takes to bag up previosuly?? she still has heaps of time

 

[a mini dream come true]

Unfortunately I don't have any foaling history on Delilah. We'll just be winging it here

. Delilah is such a love bug

she is very good about all my poking and prodding and feeling and pictures

. By the time she foals nothing should bother her

:rofl

:rofl

 

[cassie]

Lol that's so good hazel!!

That shows ha great care you take of her, well done you!

 

[a mini dream come true]

Thank you Cassie

We got some rain

, but with the rain came problems

. The power went off. can't get the DVD player to come back on and tried to connect the cam a different way. so far no luck. Will try again and see if I can get it to working.

Just wanted to give ya'll a heads up as to why the cam is not up.

 

[cassie]

Ok thanks hazel

Thanks for the heads up

 

[a mini dream come true]

Hi everyone. With Heather's wonderful help we have Delilah's cam back up and running.

Heather is such a gem

. What does it mean when you can feel the foal in the flank area? Anything Particular? Delilah is a little looser in the back end. Still not any changes in the udder department. She is getting a little impatient about her meals tho. Doean't want me to take long about putting her food in the feeder

:rofl

. You would think she's not getting fed twice a day at almost twice what I feed April. Of course April is 30" and Delilah is 33.75", she needs more. Delilah has great gut sounds so I have no worries there.

What kind of bedding hay do ya'll use for your mares. Do you use something that they can eat if they want to? I was thinking about some CPR grass. Because of the drought we are being able to bale it and sale it off the soil banked pastures. I don't think there is much nutrition to it tho, but for a softer bedding. Has anyone used it?
