nothing, no udder news to post. I asked Dan to hoist her up and start shaking up and down.

LOL!! I seem to remember offering to send a large hat pin to Heidi when her gorgeous little mare Peanut kept us all waiting for ages - it seemed like forever at the time, but in the end she produced a very special little colt, well worth the wait!!

Maybe the threat of a hat pin to 'pop' that tummy would work?

 

[rubyviewminis]

hehehe. Dan was just saying today how hard her tummy was. She looks normal until she turns to walk to you, then poor baby disappears into a furry mass of hair and belly.

Well, crap. Cam was frozen for me this morning, I will see what marestare can find out after I do morning chores.

Today...some people have mares with foals, Missy? No signs.........again. Aiming for 350 days. Last foal I know was well over 350 days but the breeder was unsure of exact breeding dates. The foal was huge with overgrown hooves at birth. Missy cooks them well. She had a nice day yesterday and seemed relaxed and comfortable and ate better (finally!)

cam is down, sending text now

 

[rubyviewminis]

Hello faithful aunties. We have had a lot of turmoil here lately, and then the cam stream was down. We just started with Marewatchers and are thrilled to have a public cam again since Missy is so important to us. I apologize for the inconvenience to all who called or texted, I had no idea until this morning that the original link was still there. Nothing could be resolved with the other cam stream down and I didn't want anyone wasting their time with not knowing when it would be up or off. I humbly ask anyone who can, to help us watch over Missy again. She is just now getting a tiny udder and going off feed here and there. Since there was so much confusion all around I will put our new cam link here also. All the phones still work, we only answered one earlier today because we didn't know you all could still see a non streaming link. Soooo sorry!

[cassie]

sorry to hear that you have been having cam problems, have got your new link up and camera looks great

we are all ready to watch your pretty girls have her little baby now! ;D

 

[Eagle]

Thank goodness you are back

I was worried so I asked one of the mods on MS to contact you as I couldn't get the cam to come up.

I will add her back to my list of girls to watch at night

 

[rubyviewminis]

You guys make me want to start crying with gratitude! I have been out in a snowstorm this morning to take care of the managerie we have. Missy is free to go in and out, except that I closed the outside gate so she only has her pen and stall. I have been so tired I don't remember if or where I posted that she moved from a flat tire udder to a maybe something is there udder, and a little in front of her udder. One thing I am certain of is that she will foal in April

I wanted to ask about something. Yesterday evening at her flank, or just in front, I thought the foal was rolling, but it kept rolling again and again, her body there not the foal. Her breathing didn't sync with it, so I was wondering if there are any thoughts on what was going on. It was on both sides, but the right more than the left. I hope that makes sense. Course at this point I may be hallucinating.

This time Angel at Marewatchers had me go into something I didn't know about, which was to change the power options to do nothing. Also I had the cam window up you guys watch so that I would know at a glance if it stopped streaming. She said that will interfere, and showed me how to use the flash encoder box to move around. So there should be no issues of interference and she will call the second there is so that we know and can adjust a setting. She made me the cutest logo and farm page! They have lots of nice features that make everything simple, and organized.

Once again, I think highly of all of you!

 

[Gone_Riding]

Sounds like baby was moving a joint there maybe, like a knee or something? I'm just going off my own pregnancy experience as I haven't had a lot of pregnant horse experience.

 

[Gone_Riding]

Oh, and thanks for the link! I've bookmarked her!

 

[Eagle]

Yes I bet it was the foal doing some acrobatics in there. I am glad you managed to get the cam back up, I missed watching her

 

[rubyviewminis]

Thank you guys! It was weird, moving in deep and then out. She is still up and eating so I guess all is well lol. Viola, you crack me up. I well remember in a distant memory, a head permanently pushed under my last right side ribs. She is still stubborn. My rib still also sticks out a little lol.

 

[AnnaC]

Once a foal gets near its delvery position (back down against mares tummy) any movement seen near the flank/in front of the mare's hip is usually caused by a foal's foot, so maybe this is what you were seeing?

 

[rubyviewminis]

Ooh, I hope so, but it was a large area about the size of both your hands spread out, and it was on both flanks, or right in front. Mmm, last time she looked like this with her filly, and in my avatar I think the foal was one or two days old so you can see the deflation lol.



she foaled on the 24th. The first foal she had a deep V that one was a colt.

 

[cassie]

wow she is such a pretty mare! and I love her colouring!

I love bay pinto's!

do you have any recent pics of her for us to see?

 

[rubyviewminis]

Oh, thank you! I love pinto bays too! My daughter is a good photographer and took some good pics of her playing with Music last month. Her hairy self being friskity.







We were laughing at her bouncy belly when she was trotting away from us, it was like a huge balloon sticking out either side bouncing up and down like in slo mo. Poor Missy. She is a real sweetheart and just loves children! I took her to the local Therapeutic Riding group to help the real small children learn not to be afraid of big horses.

 

[cassie]

what a fantastic idea

I'd love to do something similar with my mini's those who say they aren't good for anything are soooooo wrong!! she looks lilke she is having a great time in all that snow! sh has been really quiet so far tonight... nothing much going on, just cooking that baby to perfection
