Cassie, how far along do you think she is?

yes Cassie the angle is great. Don't worry about her being upset, she will settle down. Did you give her enough hay to last her all night? It is better for her to be in and on cam than foaling out alone so just let her learn to chill

Yes Diane my Odette is like that, she will escape every possible chance. Lol if it is raining and I clean their bedrooms with them in she is the only one that will climb over the wheel barrow to get out. Lol I have had her 4 years and she hasn't changed. The others are all fine and will even stay in alone but NOT Odette!

Karina- Those photos are so good! beautiful!!
Cassie- So glad Penny is up and everything is working well! She is walking around right now (2:10 am cam time) she can't decide what she wants to do. She is doing good though!

Of course Anna, you need to eliminate the old link from your favourites and then save this one:

I have a question for you? (for a change) sorry
Have you ever had mares cover other mares when they are NOT pregnant?
I have been going through my dates as I have a photo of Odette covering Britt
the first week of June but I was convinced she took on the 20th June. She was covered previously on the 25th of May but I didn't think she took. This would make her 300 days on the 19th March, what makes me think this is possible is cos she has started her shopping bag
I was convinced that I had it all in hand this year

YIPPEE!! I have Penny!!
Dont know what went wrong with my previous connection, but THANK YOU RENEE - you are my life saver!
Penny looking a bit cross, walking round, but picking at bits of munchies as she goes. She's not stressed - not like Suzie got that time there was something outside in the paddock - she's just doing what Suzie used to do when waiting for her breakfast to arrive. LOL!! I think you will have to make sure breakfast arrives right on time (if not a little early) for this young lady Cassie, at least for the first few days until she settles a bit more.
Renee, sorry but I have NEVER seen a mare 'cover' another mare (only seen it with cows!!), so I'm no help, but THRILLED to be asked a direct question.
However, from what you are saying, it does sound as though Odette might be right on course for an end of April baby?? Glad she's managing to get some of her early shopping done in the last of the New Year sales. LOL!!

Haha Renee, your Odette and my Buffy have us in the same boat. I'm still trying to decide if Buffy is going to foal in two weeks, or 4 months. Rather embarassing not being sure which it is.

Yeah Finn wanted to make a guest star appearance just as Suzie is now LOLI see Finn
I was tring to get Finn to wave... at his adoring fans...
well I checked Penny over good.... and guess what.... nothing
the left teat might be a little more swollen then the right... and there is a sack right beside that teat now... but nothing like we were hoping
I didn;t expect to see anything massive with alll the pacing she did last night but I was hoping for something a little more of a confirmation that she was in foal...
just charging up my camera otherwise it will die then I will post the pics up...
grrrr I really dnt know what to think...
Thanks for watching her last night for me girls, at least she settled a little more which is great!

the udder has a ways to go yet. I know how frustrating it is to wait and wait. It will happen when she is ready.
Cassie, after all her walking last night I'm afraid that I would not have expected to see anything this morning - exercise always reduces the milk bag until they get very near to foaling. So be a sweety and have a glance at her this evening when she has been 'unstressed' for the day, In fact I would say that evening time is the best time to check her for now.
Just realised that we always suggest that owners check their mares each morning after they have been stabled all night, because the daytime walking about normally reduces the milk bag. Penny, of course as she is unique, will be the opposite - check in evenings when you bring her in because of her 'stressed' continual exercise during the night!! LOL!!
I wouldn't panic yet Cassie. How many days did you say Penny was now (approx)? Just because she foaled at 341 days last time (is that Mark's info???) doesn't mean that she she will do the same again. Look at last year with so many mares carrying way over their due dates (and driving their exhausted owners to distraction!!)
Well I'm off to bed, hope you all have a good day (or a restful night). Catch you tomorrow!

ok I will check this arvo for you all fingers crossed
she would be 336 days if her last breeding date was the 25th March...
I ahve no clue what day she has foaled in the past... I just worked off the 340 days... is it possible (just out of interest?) thats she could go 365 days?
Finn absoloutly loves being able to go in and out of his stable during the day LOL he was most upset when I closed it on him last night LOL funny little man!
will let you know what I see this afternoon, if any changes... fingers crossed I'll take some more pics. Thanks
