Congratulations on the arrival and your quick thinking to take action shes a lovely filly

All our thoughts and prayers are now firmly on Eclipse

Eclipse at day 311. Looking good but holding tight for now.

 

[weerunner]

Eclipse is at day 317 today. Her udder is hard and hot, nipples are still pointing in though. Her milk has begun to be oily and sticky, not testing quite ready yet, but very close. She has the look of a mare that is ready to be done. I'm guessing this weekend or maybe early next week. But sure would like it if she went this weekend. Baby is still kicking!!

 

[weerunner]

This is it guys and gals!!!! Eclipse is testing ready, her vulva is loose, flank is empty and her croup is made of jelly. Udder is big and firm and nipples are pointing down. And best of all milk is testing ready. So prayers for a healthy delivery are much appreciated, we are down to the final count. So close to having this baby on the ground and healthy. I'll post baby pics as soon as she/he arrives.

 

[Debby - LB]

That is wonderful Amanda!! Prayers for a safe delivery going up for you.

We are all so excited to see your new foal.

 

[weerunner]

1am, no baby yet. No sleep tonight

 

[Mona]

Good Luck!! Hoping she'll soon "pop it out" so that you can get some sleep!

 

[Debby - LB]

Oh Amanda I feel your pain! Maybe we'll hear some good news today and you can then get some good sleep.

Hope all is going well with your little mama. Looking forward to hearing your news!

Eclipse foaled a gorgeous appy filly at 330pm on Sunday!! Baby is so lovely, cannon bone is 6.75 inches, so not a tall little girl. Doc is making me proud this year. Two foals, two fillies, can't beat that ratio.

Thanks to everyone for all the prayers, I really believe it made all the difference for Eclipse. She is so in love with her baby, it is priceless.



Any votes on what colour I should register her as? She's coffee coloured, so I'm calling her Mocha Latte/

 

[Magic Marker Minis]

I'd say sorrel.

 

[Debby - LB]

OHHH Big Congratulations!! She is absolutely gorgeous. Since I used to be a big and little mini Appaloosa breeder this is close to my heart. Lucky you 2 fillies for this year! Is this your Dr. Peppers foal?

 

[weerunner]

Yes, this is docs second foal!

 

[Debby - LB]

I know you must be very proud of him! He is sure producing nice babies. Your mare is gorgeous as well.

 

[Mona]

WOW, she is GORGEOUS! LOVE her loud coloring...LUCKY you! CONGRATULATIONS!

 

[Debby - LB]
