First day out today for Twix and Whisper Gold ! It's taken 8 days for Twix to calm down and would'nt trust her 100% yet but she's happy to have her halter on and be led into her paddock, Whisper had other ideas and went the opposite way ............. Twix did'nt seem to mind as she had her eye...

Chandab - we'd already done the navel dip - thank goodness ! The protectiveness has lessened a little but not much, would just like to get them out on pasture, they do have a little turnout area outside the stable so I leave the door open during the day. We are very carefull when in her...

I've started a new thread re: foal proud mares- please delete admin if in the wrong place ! my rescue mare who foaled yesterday is extremely foal proud, she has threatened to kick so many times and even double barrelled me - thank goodness the stable door was between us ! Once the foal was...

thank you all for your kind comments on Whisper Gold once i can get mare and foal outside i'll take some photo's and hopefully be able to see more of her colour !

Meet Whisper Gold, not the best photo's but Twix is VERY foal proud at the moment ! Not sure what colour she is - Twix is silver dapple but no idea what the sire is.

the wait is over !!!!!!!!!! It's a Filly not sure what colour she is yet - thinking bay/brown will post some photo's later bit of a struggle for Twix but she managed, thank goodness !

everything seems to be progressing, i'm sure Twix had 'a bloody show' on Wednesday evening and thought we may be good to go but we're STILL WAITING

still waiting !

nothing much to report, she's had 2 really quiet nights oh well i'm getting a lot of knitting done

just a little update, Twix was really restless for 2-3 hours this evening, pacing, bum rubbing (on my newly painted walls !) 3 lots of droppings in 2 hours (unusual for her) biting at her belly then.................. she lay down flat out and went to sleep !

sorry no updated photo's - will do some in the next few days - been really busy today cleaning and painting my large stable for Twix, she looks so tiny in there it's 15ft x15ft ! camera now installed - i'm sitting watching her - lots of licking and chewing tonight. have spoken to a local Vet...

i will be watching, looks like i'm going to be up tonight, she was very restless earlier, lots of biting at her belly. as much as i did'nt want her to be in foal, i'll be doing everything i can for her Castle Rock

visited my friend today to get back my foaling camera - good job her mares not due until June ! so will be set up tomorrow when the stable has been disinfected - have another mare in there at the moment - had'nt planned on having a foal this year, to say i'm angry with this 'Lady' is an...
