Will you settle for more still pics? I took these today (5 days) and can't decide which one I like best.

Well both pictures are good. I just am drooling at her color. Have you decided what color she is yet?
 
I really don't know that color she is, but pretty sure that there is silver in there. Most seem to think silver bay. One thing I notice about her eyes is that instead of the black eyeliner Mira has, hers seem to be a reddish color. It does not look like pink skin, but the color I would associate with champagne (although I admit I know nothing about that color!).

Her eyelashes appear to be silver, not white. I could get her color tested and I might. I would at least like to know what pinto patterns she has. We think (the vet too) that one eye is partially blue.

Bedtime update: Toffee seems a little restless and when I went to check her milk, as soon as I touched a teat, the milk came out. Now the last time this happened was around this time on April 7 for Mira and we had a foal within 12 hours. Sox looks almost as close, but the milk didn't come out quite as fast. Both seem about the same consistency - sort of sticky... like Mira's was 12 hours before foaling.

STAY TUNED FOLKS!!!

She really is a stunning girl. I love the first pic.

The ladies have been quiet anytime I have tuned in so I am guessing the will keep you waiting another night.
 
Thank you all!! Bunny got to meet most of the rest of the 4-H Club members today and I just wanted to share this. She let everyone pet her, although we were careful not to overwhelm her all at once!! And Mira is SUCH a good mom.

Awww bless her - and well done Mira for being such a good Momma too!

2am and all quiet - Sox snoozing and Toffee hoovering.
 
2.55am Sox is down sternal and Toffee is holding up the wall, oh hang on Toffee has just gone down sternal to.

3.20 am and Toffee is a beep beep beepin!

Well, the pager never went off, so I think we need to test it.

Update on Sox - muscles next to tailhead are mushy!!! I think she might beat Toffee, leaving Toffee LAST, even though she had a one month head start!!!

Both udders are full, hard but last time I checked pH was still up around 7.
 
OMG that is so funny that Toffee might be last to foal. I really hope they get down to business soon though and you get a couple of playmates for Bunny
 
So exciting, we are getting close!! That ph could drop suddenly at any time. Come on girls, lets get this show on the road!

Equipage seems to be working. Several times this week, and I think twice today, I have been outside within a few feet of the two STANDING mares, when the pager has gone off! Each time I just stare, like "how did that just happen?". They seem to be rubbing their heads on a fence/gate and its seems that the transmitter doesn't have to tip 90 degrees, but just a few degrees off horizontal will set it off. We double checked Sox's transmitter and Toffee set hers off lying down once today so they both seem to work fine.

Now girls, let's get going!! I was watching Sox swish her tail tonight and I saw a few up and down tail twitches, which I understand means they are close???? Anyone know about that sign?

It was hot here today, so Mira was in her stall a lot with the fan on. No fan now because we had to move it at feeding time.
 
2.30am and all is quiet. If you tested the system and all is well I guess you must have been sleeping like a baby last night
