I did the weefoal test today. The test says that it will give best results from day 120 to day 300 after that it is not always accurate. I got a definate positive

Since I've felt foal movement since I got her I am guessing at least 230 days, but not over 300. So I guess we have a ways to go. I will still keep checking her tho.Here are a couple of pics from today

i would,nt worry to much how big she is some mares dont even look pregnat and there in foal

are her udders getting bigger
 
So glad you got a positive result from the test Hazel, although it is pretty obvious that she is pregnant, especially, as Diane said, from looking at the 'head on' picture - she's also a very pretty girl!

Can I ask a question please - for those of you who use the wee foal test? If the test says a positive reading up until 300 days, what does it 'say' if you keep using it on the same mare once she gets past the 300 days? And if it suddenly stops registering 'anything' at around the 300 day mark, could this give you an 'exact' date date of 300 days for a pregnant mare where her owners had no idea how far along she was?

I'm sure you intelligent folk realise what I'm trying to ask/suggest! LOL!! It was just a thought that popped into my mind - I do have them occasionally!
 
Delilah is looking absoloutly beautiful!!!! sorry I didn't comment earlier Hazel crazy weekend, worked a 12 hr shift at the vets saturday then worked another 8 hr shift at the vets sunday

I'm working on getting better, but slightly over-did today. My mom turned 82 yesterday, so I did a birthday dinner for her today with all the kids and grandkids, and her favorite cousin and her husband. So, a big family dinner with birthday cake and all the trimmings. I came home a bit early, as I did have to go to the ER and am now on some strong medication and some definite rest.

Can you tell -- I'm a really LOUSY patient -- I hate being held back from doing things I want to do. This getting old is the pitts!

But, I just come here to get my "joy" fix -- AND LOOK FOR PICTURES OF THAT FAVORITE PUPPY......

May not be able to tell. but he has his eyes open now and starting to explore

It's sooo funny. I had not ever seen a dapple until we got Dudley for my hubby. He throws at least one Dapple with each litter. Cocoa had only one pup and it is a dapple and a little girl. So Dudley has two daughter and one son that are dapple.

I'll have to take some more pics tomorrow while he is exploring and maybe get the little girl away from her mom long enough to get a pic of her

default_biggrin.png

Diane, you really must take some serious rest time from now on - yes I do know how you felt it necessary to 'pull all the stops out' for your Mum's Birthday, but we all INSIST that you now take care of YOURSELF for a while!!!

OK if we are doing a 'hopefully in foal' list for this coming year, here are mine.....

Nutty to Dragon for her last foal (she's 22 this year and as we no longer breed her every year, she will be too old to cover again in the future, anyway she must have given us some 10-12 babies since I got her in the summer of her 3rd year!!)

Neyla (Nutty daughter) to Dragon for her second foal, a repeat mating.

Lady (Nutty daughter) to Dragon for a second foal.

Narcotics (Nutty daughter) to Spotbum (Cotics is 17 this year, lost a filly in the bag last year to Spotbum, so we bred her again. She's a snowflake spotty (by my old blanket spot boy Patch) so we are hoping for a spotty baby - filly she lost was pale chestnut with spots on its botty)

Nell (Costics daughter) also to Spotbum for her second foal.

Prue to Dragon for her fourth foal.

Vee to Dragon for her fourth foal

Neyla, Lady, Nell and Prue are all by my late black and white mini Shetland (British) stallion Romany Kajun who, for those of you that know British Shetlands, was the son of Romany Paco.

They were all covered late (August) as per the plan we are experimenting with right now, so not due until July approx. Nutty has told me she's pregnant so I'm hoping it is not wishful thinking on her part. Narcotics and Vee MUST be in foal as they are a right grumpy pair and keep attacking anyone invading their personal space (also they are usually enemies but now they are mostly to be found sharing the same blade of grass!!
default_rolleyes.gif
)

I think Prue is pregnant, not sure about Lady, as for Nell, well she is just a fat pig!! She feeds herself and in 2010 produced a tiny skinny little filly, who she really wasn't interested in, including not providing that much milk, so she is obviously one who grabs all the food for herself and gives nothing much to feeding her developing baby in utero! Will be interested to see what happen this time - if she's actually in foal!

That's my lot - will be going out to try the ring test when we eventually get a day where the wind isn't blowing up a storm, so will let you know the results.

Thank you Diane and Cassie. I think they are pretty special too.

Well I have 2 in foal. Delilah and April. April is due the 28th of May and of course We're not sure when Delilah is due. Was thinking January, but now looks like February. We'll see.
 
Aww! Those pups are all so cute!

And Delilah is such a pretty mare!

April is a smokey black and white pinto and the sire is a sorrel and white pinto . He is the one in my avitar. This should be one small foal. April is 30" and Juan is 28.75".

Thank ya'll, All the puppies are like the mins spoiled rotten, but that is ok.
