Peanut Blessed me with a

[Eagle]

It looks like she is trying to stand in the dark. Heidi perhaps you could try closing the top door for her, that way she won't have to stand in the bathroom

I dont know how you find the time for showing anyway Karina with all your tribe to look after - take my hat off to you (or I would if I wore one, but you know what I mean!) It will be great if Conor keeps his interest in showing, I love watching the young handlers classes, they are all so serious (well most of the time!)

Heidi, I think someone else asked, but has your marestare clock changed - it still seems to me to 'feel' wrong somehow? Or maybe it's me getting confused as usual.

Peanut has certainly been active today, so perhaps tonight................

sorry, I havent posted but have just been watching. she has i think dropped alittle more..I noticed it when she was out and I was walking towards her from the side. I think it was Renee that mentioned lighting..I think tonight I will take out a few bulbs and see if maybe she gets more comfortable...i can still blast on the overheads if she goes in ..well I dont want to jinx it....that L word!! Diane we missed the down pour..it was lightning but never much rain I would rather just the sprinkle so Peanut could be out.

I think I have to try Peanuts sister Popcorn in the other stall...Im alittle worried that not having S.B. is making Holly alittle upset. I've started to hear Holly calling for her at night and several times I have gone out to feed in the AM and Holly has made crop circles down at the gate...I think, looking for S.B. S.B. is a pretty sensitive nervous horse so I was hoping the extra one on one would be good for her which I think it is and she sure likes the extra attention but I think Holly is taking her frustrations out on the others. Im ready to put Popcorn Holly and S.B. with nick for 6 months and lock the gate and see what happens in the Spring...it would sure make for a very happy Nick. well i have to head out and take out a few light bulb!!

If you havent gone to bed yet Good Night Renee

Be careful with how many lights/bulbs you take out Heidi, not a good idea to have to rush down if she starts foaling and spring a load of bright lights on to her. Plus remember that you may well not have time to be running round re-connecting lights/putting bulbs back in!

 

[bannerminis]

I dont know how I do it either Anna

I just keep plugging away and all I hear all day is I"M HUNGRY. Especially of Aofie who I think has hollow legs. She is like a bean pole and will keep eating and eating if I let her.

Here is a couple of pics of Conor at his first show (mare belongs to a friend and she let Conor show her in the young handlers)

Accepting his prize

 

[cassie]

naw Karina!!

how sweet!! he must have been so excited!! I remember I was in my first lead class!! with big horses not minis LOL

so Heidi, how is our girl looking tonight? is she ready for some action??

come on Peanut!!

 

[LittleRibbie]

He looks like hes having a blast. Good job Conor You rock

What a nice friend to loan Conor a horse for the day!

Anna there will be no running around putting lights back in, reconnecting or looking for lights when the time is right. my over head lights are more than enough to light up the town....I very rarely even turn them on. The only lights Im adjusting are the wall sconces and they are on the outside posts on the stalls...it should be fine for viewing but will find out later tonight.

 

[LittleRibbie]

Hi Cassie, I just put her out again as the weather is starting to cooperate...hopefully she will at least consider tonight to be the night. He Cassie, I just wanted to let you know....and this is something I never knew but would have freaked me out alittle...did you know that foals are often born with their tongues hanging out? I never knew this and speaking w/Connie yesterday she mentioned it...I just wanted to let you know...just in case like me you saw it and perhaps thought something is wrong. Are cows born w/their tongues hanging out sometimes? you would probablly know this but I didnt but Im glad I know now not to freak!!

 

[bannerminis]

Tilly came out with her tongue hanging out - first time I have seen it and it was a purple colour so I was a little panicked lol

 

[cassie]

very good Heidi

hopefully she does some really good rolls for you then comes in and gets down to business

alot of the calves come with theire tongues hanging out, but its good to know that horses do it sometimes as well

thanks

karina that would have been so scary with Tilly!!

well I will be watching Peanut again for you Heidi

lets hope tonight is the night

 

[LittleRibbie]

See, thats why Im glad I heard this..with the way things are going I wouldnt doubt peanuts foal will present the same way and I too would panic!!

 

[LittleRibbie]

Thanks Cassie for always watching her...it is appreciated

 

[cassie]

No worries at all Heidi!!

n thankyou for watching Suzie in return!!

you know I love it!!

I love watching Peanut in her daily antics!! and I definatly hope to catch the birth!!

 

[cassie]

[LittleRibbie]

hi, everyone,Im not sure what I have but my head is going to come off my shoulders and fly around the room any minute. It came on fast this afternoon. I just drank a bunch of Nyquil and am going to go to bed...smother myself in blankets and hope I can sweat it out of me. I just put Skiff on watch and hes pretty good but I know he is tired. I posted on MS for extra eyes too.Sorry I cant keep you company but you know my #..call collect anything that doesnt seem like the usual Peanut. At this point she can sleep in her bathroom like she did last night..I dont care I just need to put my head down....Thanks Diane,Cassie and Renee,Anna and anyone else that can help

 

[cassie]

Get some rest Heidi!! I will keep a close eye on her for you!!

hoping you feel better in the morning!!!

 

[LittleRibbie]

Cas, i just went and checked on her shes fine and gave her some more hay....I also told her you were in charge!! Thanks for everything Good night and Good morning Renee and Anna

 

[Equuisize]

I'm back, thru with company and doc appts.

Been watching off and on when it didn't seem rude to company

and when close to the computer.

I'll be about, also, until about 1:30 AM your time.

Get yourself well, so you don't miss the blessed event.

I'd say by your last post on Cassie's thread that she is getting

closer and closer......

I know when Zoe refuses rubs she's closing in.
