Thank you Renee - I would have said "Oh there goes Anna being bossy again" LOL!!

Laney drinks A LOT of water everyday. We refill her bucket (8 or 10 gallon I can't remember) every day and it is always almost empty the next.

She is shedding out really nicely. I get tons of hair with the curry comb several times a day to help her because she gets hot often.

Anna, I can definitely stagger the times I let Ricky and Laney out in the big pasture if I can't have them out together. Once she gets real close I don't want her in the big pasture thought because she will NOT let you catch her and there are too many places to hide out of view. It's hard to watch them when they are out there. I will let her out there as long as possible though. They are normally out together around 5 hours a day. Once they finish their morning hay (Ricky is always done first) or almost finish it I open their gates.

Renee, Ricky is so funny with that ball. The plug came out last week and I had to blow it back up. He was still carrying it around when it was flat. When I brought it back out to him after I blew it I rolled it and he ran straight to it and got on top of it.
 
Oh excellent you can definitely see some changes there. You must be getting excited now as its really only round the corner.
 
Yes! I am getting very excited!

Laney has been rolling a lot today. I have seen her roll at least 3 times. I know she does roll because she has dirt on her back in the mornings but I haven't ever seen her do it this much.
 
2.20am and she has been down sternal just outside her shelter since I came on at 2.00am
 
At Laney's dinner time last night her bag was down a little bit but this morning it had filled back to where is was plus a little more.

This morning when I woke up Laney was standing at her gate waiting for her breakfast in a light rain.. lol.. silly girl.

She was facing the house if she had her back turned to the stable Cassie

House is forward and to the right.
 
Laney is changing her behavior a bit. When she is in her pen it was typical to catch her munching on hay most of the time but now she ops to rest and stand in random places, like I have seen most mares in the last weeks of their pregnancy. She leaves hay at night and through the day now so she must not have as much room as she did before to fill her belly.

How far in advance do their hoohas start to relax? Laney's has started to relax and is a bit pink in the center.
 
Megan,I have always found that they go 'up and down' in the relaxing department just like their bags. It is only towards the end that they get long and swollen and stay there. Going deep red inside means foaling is very close!!
 
Laney was not as relaxed at dinner time tonight. You are very right, Anna (of course)
