Sounds Exciting

How much hay should I be giving her?

 

[elizabeth.conder]

I would say free choice. Unless she is super overweight which is not the case, I would not be limiting her hay. Especially as she gets further along she will need more.

My goodness I went out to take some pictures of her I cleaned her this morning and had to do it again

She always has free choice, a carrot or two, and some grain in the morning

Update boo is doing great! She loves to stand in the sun and swish her tail lightly

Boo is doing very well she is getting bigger by the day. Her bag seems to be filling. How long before foaling will her bag be full?

It depends on the mare. Some will be full many days before foaling and some won’t fill till during or even after labor. Those are two extremes that although sometimes happen are quite rare. Best to be prepared for either. That’s why it is so important to pay attention to multiple signs.

I hoping she's going to wait awhile because the farthest along she could be is 9 months

Boo is doing great! She is shedding lots. She is going to get her ultrasound done today. I can't wait to see if she is pregnant. I think she is but won't know for sure untill later.

Let us know! Hoping your instincts are right.

 

[Ryan Johnson]

Congratulations!!

It looks like her udder is starting to fill, I will get more pictures tomorrow

 

[Ryan Johnson]

Keep taking that picture from behind , it gives us a great indication on how the foal is currently positioned . As her udder continues to fill her nipples will fill and point down.

. . Sorry I meant to get pictures posted sooner. She hasn't dropped but she does seem to be getting a bigger bag.
