April / Delilah / Vernica's Foaling thread Cam Up

[cassie]

fingers crossed Hazel!!! poor little kid! I'm hoping that Vernica and Delilah's foals are nicer and more friendly to him

he is such a cute baby and him and Dalton would be so cute together!!

 

[a mini dream come true]

The girls are doing good. No changes. We have acurally been getting some rain off and on today. April keeps running Eddy in and he keeps dodging her and going back outside. Dalton finally got to pet him today, but we have a long way to go. Here are a coulpe of pics.

We keep at it and they will be big buddies. April is still so protective. We have to have her caught in order to get close to him and I'm sure that scares him too.

Good evening ladies and Gents. We finally got the cam moved this evening. Now we have Vernica and Delilah on cam. I'm thinking just in time.

Tested milk this evening and Delilah is testing 7.6 or 7.8. and Vernica is testing a 6 or barelly a 6.4 and she has cow patties.

. We don't have any lights up yet, I'm just hoping we will be able to see her enough tonight.

YAY YAY YAY YAY

so happy to see Vernica! I have her up, and sounds like its just in time too! how is her bag looking

hoping she goes soon...

she is down sternal... oh and I see Delilah

Hi Delilah

Vernica's bag is not full. She has a ways to go in that department so we'll see how it goes. Hubby is going to get more bedding tomorrow and a light to make it a little easier to see Vernica. She is a black appy so without the bedding you wouldn't see her against the black mats. I didn't realize how much the chriastmas lights helped in April's stall.

Vernica is doing good. I am so happy to get the cam up on them. Hubby was trying to put it off another day until I tested milk. Dalton is here and he helped me gather up all the wire and run it over to the new barn.

Poor little guy really worked this evening and is out like a light.

I'm getting excited to see Vernica's foal now. Diane what do you think we'll get with this combination?

 

[cassie]

Vernica doing some BIG rolls and is back up

leg shifting and tail swishing and off into the corner...

 

[a mini dream come true]

I saw that. I'm trying to watch for blind spots so we can make adjustments if we need to. I already know it needs to go a little more to the front.

 

[a mini dream come true]

I've been told I can't stay up all night to watch so I guess I'm going to bed. Thank ya'll for watching for me. Hope everyone has a great evening/ day.night.

 

[cassie]

Im here watching, she is back down sternal and now out flat but resting nicely LOL she has THE LONGEST legs!!!! LOL she should be a model hehe get some rest Hazel

yeah a few camera adjustments would be good but otherwise its fine

 

[cassie]

Delilah down sternal resting, Vernica grazing her stall

cute

 

[a mini dream come true]

Wow! How cool is that. A blue roan would be nice. Since I have a colt a filly would be super nice.

 

[Eagle]

Hazel I am sorry that I haven't been around I promise I will as soon as things settle down here

 

[a mini dream come true]

You are so right Diane. I just got home and will go out shortly to check the girls.It's probably flies. We have finally had some rain and they have magically appeared by the hundreds.

Renee, goodness me, with all the puppies and everything you need not say you're sorry.

I'll update more in a bit.

 

[cassie]

I want be able to watch much today sorry hazel, maybe in the afternoon I will bit of a crazy day for me but that's ok

cant wait to hear your update on Veronica, like Diane said I think she has more of a v shape to her yay!!

 

[AnnaC]

I'm sorry I haven't been round that much too Hazel, life here got a bit busy, so just mostly been reading/checking! But back to watching now - just in time for Vernica it seems?

I love your new barn set up - it's so great that they can both see each other and have company while they are waiting for their babies.

Just noticed one of your comments - are you still feeling ill? Or is it just that things have been busy and with work too, it is obviously important that you get at least some sleep at nights? Hope it is not that you are still feeling ill.

Would love to see some side-on pictures of Vernica and Delilah if poss.

Vernica's milk is very thick and didn't even change the color of the paper. Here are some pic taken this evening. She really didn't want me messing with her. Her hooha is puffy, but I don't think I got a good pic of it.

She was standing crooked in that pic.Makes it look like the foal is all on one side. He are a couple of pics of Delilah

The little one in the background is Daniela. She and Delilah have made fast buddies.

 

[mthowdy]

Wow if her milk didn't change the color of the paper I would think she is going to foal very soon! How exciting! I might have to go to my friends for a bit to watch your cam!

They are both looking really good!

 

[a mini dream come true]

Vernica is round, but not big round. Her flanks are not sunk in. Delilah looks like an A from the back. Wider at the bottom than at the top. I could see it awhile ago while I was out there trying to get rid of the fly off the camera. Vernica's poo has firmed up a little. Not quite cow patty. and she was yawning a lot while I was out there. And Vernica's bum is not soft and still has resistance at her tail.
