Finially got round to doing something with our filly born back in October (about 6 weeks after my son was born.) Anyway here is miss miley. The chestnut in the background is the same horse that is in my avatar but plus 11 years.. One filly down... One more to bring in clip and photograph.

We have a maiden mare, with a pinky sticky gel like discharge. I have heard of a mucus plug but never seen one. I called the vet to see what he said (and to see who was on for the night) and they said it could be a mucus plug but if its anything else there isn't alot they can do.... Any info...

Just a few snaps taken quickly this morning. Today has been one of those days. Mare foaled at 3.30 but I was sure it was going to be earlier so stayed up. Said to my husband after the mare foaled, Yes I was in my PJ's.. That I was just getting changed and going to be outside, he said why...

To make a long story short we had a goregous pinto filly born about 3.30am this morning birth was uneventful and very quick but the mare did leap up almost immediately after birth and the placenta came out at the same. The wee filly seemed fine all day (now over 12 hours old) and is feeding...

Foaling season is well over for us, the alarm is packed back away... only ended up having two foals this season, one mare ended up being empty and we sold the other (who produced my black filly that I had been waiting on!!) However we are pleased with the 2 fillies we had. Keeping with our...

After many years of sending our mares out to be foaled we have decided to keep our mares at home from now on. Can anyone recommend a foaling alarm that they like and why they like over other types. Also does anyone know any good places to purchase from.

We have had a sucky start to 2007 and lost both a mare and foal 2 nights ago with a horrendous foaling. We have lost our matriarch and are completely wreaked over it, and feel like bad horse mummys even though we know we did everything, we still feel like it wasn't enough... On talking a few...

Well here we are almost a year to the day since we started out building this barn.. I can't believe its August already... This time last year we were filing documents for council permits... Anyway here goes with the latest barn pictures. This it looking down from the mezanine over my house back...

In March last year we decided to take down our old barn and build a new one. It took until August to get the paper work in for permits etc... It was supposed to take 6 weeks to get approval as we had our own engrineer who is also employed by our local council do the work prior to submitting the...

I always wonder what versitility is over in the US. We have versitility here and it is a points based class taken from other classes, harness, halter, jumping, obstacle, liberty etc. There is no actual physical to compete in just the title for the horse that scores the most points. Is that how...

We have a broodmare who seems to be really getting dragged down by her foal this year. She is very light, on good pasture 24/7, fed 2x daily each feeding is a 1 cup of broodmare, 1 cup of Economix, half a cup of promita, 2 cups of beet pulp, 1 cup of chaff hage, 2 cups of soaked alfa alfa cups...

After 2 years of engagement and planning and missing many horse shows and events (especially this season), I finially feel like a free person again!! Too bad the show season is all but over for us... All and all we had a fantastic day... and I was so pleased to beable to share it with family...

Our little filly born October has been looking off colour since we did our rounds, had the vet up and she has colic, her gut sounds are a bit quiet and she is very quiet and flicking her head and sitting down a lot, the vet gave her an anti inflamitory and and antibiotic. her temp is 38.6c. Her...

There is alot of debate on the colour of this horse, however I say he is a silver chestnut and expressing silver, as that is all that he can possibly genetically be to the best of my knowlege. His dam is a silver pinto who does carry chestnut (sire chestnut - Dam Black and pinto) and has...

Hummm just wondering if there could be a link here. I posted a few weeks ago about the mare who looked like she was going to foal and then suddenly stopped, everything tightened up and she went back to eating, well she did this a couple to times... She did foal last Friday night and we were very...

We had a mare who last night looked imminant around 3am. Pacing, completely soft behind, and looking really uncomfortable, but then just stopped butt tightened up but she still looks really unhappy.. Now my mother is getting all stressed out.. Just wondered if anyone else has had this happen...

Off this proof sheet. This is my very special 2 year old mare, I realised I had like 2 foal photos of her and that was it so had Meg take a few photos of her, she was not the most co-operative horse, and the weather was not in our favour so here's what I have to choose from... I like 1, 2 and...

Well finally on Saturday my little over due mare looked like she was getting down to bussiness (353 days), we alerted the vet and said we would call as soon as the foaling alarm went off at 10pm that night she did... Firstly, it was a red bag, luckly for us the person foaling her broke it and...

Can I ask a favour, I need some good thoughts sent the way of my mare and her unborn foal, she was scanned yesterday and we still don't have alot of info, other than there are no twists in the cord, blood flow looks good and the foal is active, but is still very small and not turned yet.... She...
