Stormy's foaling thread

[cassie]

hmmm, well I think there might be some little changes happening

does she let you feel her udder? can you feel the difference? Suz loves being scratched around there so I'm able to feel her alot, n I felt the changes before I saw them...

don't know if that will help...

she looks to me like she could loosen alot behind still... but as you say she tucks up,... when you lift the tail. does she try and clamp it down or are you able to move it round? how many days is she now?!

She is my sweet girl, let's me do most anything as long as I talk to her and reassure her. She does better for me than my hubby. I cleaned her udders again with baby wet wipes, and she LOVES it

when I clean the crevis (sp?) way up in there. To me the top of the udders fell much large, but down by her teats they just arent changing much. She feels a little loose, but I agree with you she could loosen more. I can move her tail around, but its not limp.

Oh and she is 346 days now, thats why I have been so concerned in the past, but the vet says she has seen them go a full year and be fine

 

[Equuisize]

I swear to everything holy, that Zoe went exactly 365 days this year.

I know her exact breeding dates. We waited and waited and waited.

I threatened to put her on a diet and throw her out in the fat girl

pasture and she had Zaky that night.

Believe your vet....it's been the oddest year, for foaling, ever.

That's good that you can feel the difference it's annoying when you can feel it but the pics dnt really show it that's what happened to suz but in the recent pics I took today which will be coming up later this arvo you can finally see a real change!! Yay!! U n me can be in the worry club together lol I'm so stressed that she wont foal before we go away but now she is changing more it's getting a little less worrying lol

 

[cassie]

stormy down snoozing!! what a cute little girl!

 

[cassie]

stormy up to have a poop, looking pretty solid, has she been having any cow patties at all Kara?

 

[cassie]

stormy back down sternal, haven't seen her lie down this much before...

 

[cassie]

Stormy back up n eating her hay

all is well

 

[LittleBittyBritches]

Thanks Cassie!

I love checking in on Suzie, she is such a cutie. how tall is she again?

Stormy's poo has been pretty solid and normal.

 

[LittleBittyBritches]

I am going to let Stormy out for a bit, she will be back in tonight!

 

[AnnaC]

I've been watching a nice clean stable for the last few hours and now I'm going to bed (shortly), guess I'll have to wait until 'morning' before pretty little Stormy is back on my cam!

 

[cassie]

I'll keep stormy up again for you Kara

Suz a bit over 32" love my baby girl! can't wait for her little foal

as I'm sure can't you with yours!!

do you know what the stallion looks like, I can't remember LOL

Thanks Cassie, Stormy is 32 inches also. The sire is a small 26.5 inch sorrel & white pinto.

Ok, so I 'm guessing her night won't be tonight, because I finally got the nerve up to taste her milk, and it was salty. Dont know how fast it changes to sweet, but the ph was still 7.5. So that means Darla the filly fairy is up for grabs, go tonight!

Anyways, My hubby thought I was disgusting, so hopefully I wont get any sicknesses

. Here is a picture of her from both sides from this afternoon. (I took the halter off after the photos)



Her udders at the top feel larger, what do you guys think???????

 

[cassie]

she is looking very similar to suzie, though suzie is slowly changing a little more in the udder department now, have you looked at the pics of suz i posted yesterday? I think Suz n Stormy will go at a similar time.... how many days is she now?

 

[jessj]

lol...i think you will be fine with the milk. my daughter is hilarious...she LOVES testing it. She thinks it makes her cool. The first time she looked at me and said "its bland today" i almost wet myself i laughed so hard!! I didnt know she knew what bland meant. Only problem with d is that her milk will go bland or even sweet for a day, then back to salty. Thanks for offering the filly fairy up for grabs tonight, but im not sure we will need her tonight either...

 

[LittleBittyBritches]

Can anyone post a pic of the famous "v" just so I can see a good example.

Cassie she is 347 days today. I think u might be right on their timelines....

 

[cassie]

lol ok, so its still within an ok range for her to have this filly!

was she is a maiden, I thought she was... but again can't remember lol

yeah I think suzie and Stormy will have their foals at a similar time, maybe by looking at bag size, suz might go a little earlier, but Stormy might overnight get a massive bag!!
