Lotus is just gorgeous.

She was on my wish list, but since all I can do is window shop these days, I'm really glad a family member got her so I can see her foals and hear how she's doing.

Thanks everyone , were excited to see what Lotus and Buzz do together

Lotus is starting to bag some not much so maybe we are getting somewhere

She is just 302 days today

she gets real annoyed when I check her but at least she has had foals before

They have been in all day today rainy day

 

[countrymini]

Lotus has a gorgeous face. I WANT one!

 

[eagles ring farm]

Lotus is starting to bag just a little

 

[Eagle]

Thanks for the update Lori

Good girl Lotus for starting your shopping bag

 

[eagles ring farm]

Hey all

Lotus has a little more of a bag but still has a way to go as of this morning

I didn't check her tonight since my husband put the horses in and fed them before I got home

since it was starting to rain.

 

[eagles ring farm]

well we are playing the very small bag in the am after stalling but sometimes nothing after being outside all day with Lotus no real signs at all yet. I'm anxious for foal #2

Spice and her filly are doing great and are outside all day now since we've had some better weather

I gotta get some more pics. We have had so much running around to do when I'm not at work Its been a pain

 

[eagles ring farm]

Lotus is at day 314 is it odd for a mare who has had previous foals to not have much of a bag at this point?

 

[Eagle]

I shouldn't worry Lori, she just needs to cook this one a little more. I agree you are way overdue with the pics though

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

Lotus is gorgeous! Most of my experienced mares actually dont bag very early, I have one that has no bag until the day she foals and then it fills really quickly. Others only take a couple days before foaling. Only have a handful that drag the process out longer. My mare is 317 days today and very seasoned broodmare and has pretty much no udder, every once in a while feels like she thinks about starting to bag but then next time I check it is gone again, this is my first foal from her so dont know what she normally does. I agree though we need more pictures

 

[eagles ring farm]

Here I go again putting too much stake into checking udders and not enough checking for other signs

Thank you Melinda for your experience with experienced mares. I think my experience has been the opposite

but I will certainly keep a closer eye on the other signs starting in the morning

 

[AnnaC]

I agree that you need to watch for other signs, not just the udder - so many of these girls develop their milk supply at the last minute.

I also agree that we need some new pictures - not wanting to make that sound like a 'demand' of course.

 

[eagles ring farm]

As I said I'm terrible at getting pictures. I will try to remember to take the camera out with me in the morning

I feed and let the horses out and try to clean some stalls before getting ready for work and its dark when I get home

of course I'm off all weekend you think I'd remember then lol. Lotus seems to have made a tiny bit of progress

Spice and her filly (by the way her fillys name is Twilight) She has straightened up in her legs and is fresh and cute as can be

I also have to get more pics of them.

 

[eagles ring farm]

Lotus is at 323 days her udder is getting a little bigger less tail resistance

we put her halter Buzzer on tonight - it would be great if she foaled this weekend while I'm off and the weather is beautiful in the 50's and sunny. But I think she has a little longer to go not much relaxing in her vulva

I still haven't gotten pics but hoping to tomorrow am. She has had previous foals but she is new to us. so I don't know how she usually shows signs

 

[eagles ring farm]

finally after a few weeks of trying to remember I got a few pics of Lotus today

of course the battery on the camera didn't last for udder pics but there isn't a whole lot to see there

not great pics I have a really good camera but I always grab the cheep on it's so much smaller
