[MeganH]

1:40 am cam time- She is definitely restless.. has not stopped moving around since I turned the cam on... the cam is in an odd position.. I'll have to read posts to catch up.

 

[Eagle]

yeah Megan Cassie will fix it in the morning

 

[MeganH]

I read through the posts and saw all the problems she was having. Poor Cassie.

EDIT:

4:15 cam time and Penny is still restless.. can't believe she isn't napping by now.

4.27am and I haven't really seen Penny settle down tonight. Cassie have you moved Suzie and Finn further away? something definitely has upset her.

My Odette is progressing nicely and I had a bit of a shock when I lifted her tail tonight. Let me all know what you think.

Last month



tonight



It's not a great pic but she is a little skittish. Her udder has gone down a bit but her edema in front is getting bigger.

 

[AnnaC]

Approx 4.30am and she does look bothered about something doesn't she? Is it the rain, although she didn't worry about it the first night it came, but she does keep looking towards the roof or behind her so is the rain a lot heavier? We have to try to work out what is causing her to be bothered beause it really isn't good for her - she was so good after those first couple of days settling in, so something must be different about the last two nights??

 

[AnnaC]

Goodness Renee, that is a change!! When's she due - sorry I've forgotten!

 

[Eagle]

She will be 320 on the 10th May but I am wondering if eagle did a sly one and got there before

 

[bannerminis]

Has she any spring yet?? And yes I have been fooled before as I counted Rosie once on a last day of her being covered which was in July which put her at the June Bank Holiday weekend but she foaled on the May Bank Holiday weekend(a whole month earlier). Foal was perfect and not a preemie so Rosie decided to give Teddy an extra thrill for the yr (or maybe herself) LOL

 

[MeganH]

Darn well they wont show the second picture you posted Renee (at least it wont show for me)

I do agree Penny has been different tonight. I think she finally may be settling a little

 

[AnnaC]

LOL!! Karina - these boys can be very sneaky when needed! So Renee an April foal????

 

[Eagle]

Megan I reposted the pic, for some strange reason the first one is o.k but they don't like the longer version

Who knows Anna, it does look that way but I guess time will tell.

 

[MeganH]

I see the pictures and there definitely is a difference!

 

[a mini dream come true]

can we ever be sure with these mares?

Looks like Penny has her friends in with her now maybe she will not stress.

 

[a mini dream come true]

Finn looks so cute all stretched out for his morning nap at 10:15am cam time.

hey a quick question and it might be a bit dum... but I was thinking about it this arvo... ok so Penny has had two foals...

first was a tiny colt while she had EI, she was two weeks early but Christine thinks that is because she was sick...

2nd foal was over 4 years ago and another colt....

do you think that maybe (n correct me if I am totally wrong) could she be smaller with this foal as she hasn't had a foal in a while? and has only had two??

what are your thoughts??

going to try fix the camera AGAIN! lol

I have heard that the first foal is often the smallest, not sure if there is any science to back it up. I know back when I bred rabbits they had the smallest litter first and form then onwards often had an extra 1 to 3 babies on top of that original litter number.

However after that first foal I think it's the usual bundle of reasons that determine foal size, which means mostly genetics! I would personally doubt that this foal would be smaller then the last simply due to time between them.

I hope Penny gives you a useful sign one way or the other soon!
