How are you feeling today?

 

[a mini dream come true]

Thanks ladies, I am feeling better today. Hopefully it's over

 

[a mini dream come true]

I think the worst is over. Still feeling better this afyernoon. Got home and hubby helped feed and we went to get some parts for building some more fence. Hoping to have Vernica down here this weekend and will post updates on her and Delilah.

Delilah. Now there is one for the books

. This afternoon her udder had lost a lot of what she had gained

. She has just got me so confused

. Now I am to the point of questioning if she is even preggers, I'll post pics tomorrow of her and see what you ladies think.

 

[Eagle]

thanks for the update Hazel, I am so glad you are feeling better

 

[AnnaC]

Glad you are feeling better Hazel, will be great to see some pics of Delilah again and I'm glad that Vernica will be joining you soon so you can keep an eye on her - and we can too!!

 

[a mini dream come true]

Good morning everyone. Want to give you an udate on progress. The cam may be down for a while today. If it goes blank, not to worry that will only mean we are getting the cam moved to the new location. Fixing to go out back and see how far we get. We have been having some rain

finally and it is a little cool this morning. Talk to you later.

 

[LittleBittyBritches]

Yea! Let us know how it goes..

 

[a mini dream come true]

We got a lot done today. Didn't get the camera moved, but we made a trip to Lubbock and New Deal too so That put us a little behind. We took all the old wire off of Daniela's pen and took out old dirt and put in new dirt and started back with the new fence. Should have that ready for her tomorrow when Vernica gets here.

. While we were at New Deal I took new pics of Vernica. First we have side view

Abck view

and udder

Udder shot is not real good but you can tell she has a ways to go in the shopping department. And I took new pics of Delilah this evening. I know I need to clean her stall also. I just didn't get to it today, but will tomorrow.

See what I mean. She wouldn't let me get a pic from behind so I'll have to that the other camera out there so I can zoom to get the pic we need. I also took a pic for her udder.

Really not much cange. If anything it has gone down some. Is that normal for a pregnant mare? For it to go down that much? She does have some showing on the sides and they're not even so. What do ya'll think?

 

[LittleBittyBritches]

For the longest time Snowball's udder would fill every morning, and then go down to almost nothing, until the last couple nights, she has kept it. I think that is fairly common for mares udders to go up and down alot

 

[a mini dream come true]

I wasn't really worried about the udder thing. I know there have been lots of changes for Delilah this last year and she has changed a lot since she got here. From a very hairy ball to a sleek girl. Well as you said Diane we'll just have to wait and watch and watch. She is such a beauty and I know she'll have a beautiful foal. I just knew she would have it be now tho. That's the part that worries me.

 

[Eagle]

Vernica looks fab Hazel, I can't wait to start watching her

Can you feel foal movement on Delilah when she eats? In the last month the foal is visable when it moves so this helps a little to see how far along they are

 

[cassie]

Vernica is lovely

as Renee says I can't wait to watch her!!

Delilah

I have nothing else to say! her tummy looks preggers! have you felt movement? come on girl!

 

[a mini dream come true]

Hi everyone. Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day.

Thanks Renee, Vernica is finally in the maturnity ward here. The cam hasn't been moved yet, but soon. I'm not going to move April and Eddy for a while so we are moving the cam instead. That way Vernica and Delilah will both be on the cam. Vernica will be in the near stall and Delilah in the far stall. We're hoping to be able to get it where both are easy to see.

I really wish I had a better idea of when they are due. Seems the prevous owner pasture bred them and so I have dates from January to August. I think we are safe in deleting Jan thru the first half of May for a foaling date

:rofl , Getting both girls together they look pretty close to the same. Right now Vernica has done a little more shopping than Delilah, but I know that can change quickly.

When we got home this afternoon Vernica had graced the trailler with one regular poo and two or three cow patties. Not sure but think that was just because of the ride. She had settled into her new stall and will be going to check on her later.

 

[cassie]

cool

come on Vernica

we want to see your gorgeous baby!

 

[a mini dream come true]

Just went out and checked on our girls. They are munching away which is good. I at least hope they both wait til I get the cam up on their side.

Tomorrow another day for work so I'm going to call it a night. Hope everyone have a great day / evening.

 

[cassie]

Night Hazel

have a great sleep

oh and I believe we need some new pics of your little man soon please! has he warmed up to Dalton at all?

 

[a mini dream come true]

We captured the little rascal this morning and measured his cannon bone. 7 1/2' So this evening when Dalton got here Eddy was in no mood to be friendly. Maybe tomorrow. We'll keep trying. We'll have new pics of with Dalton.
