Its been a while sense I updated on Indy, mostly because its been such a struggle with her placentitis issue. She started with it at day 145 and has been being treated for MONTHS now
Thankfully we are at day 297 and doing GREAT.
Over the past few months she has developed more and more of an udder, however never yet has produced milk. Vulva did get long at one point but Thankfully we were able to get her past that episode.
Ive been educating myself on all things placentitis, including foaling and post foaling care. Ive read that red bag incidents can be higher in the placentitis mare so I am going to be very diligent in her foal watch. I would really appreciate any and all help keeping eyes on her as she gets closer... I have ordered seramune, as a precaution, and have read all I can get on red bag deliveries.
I do have questions about red bag that I havent seemed to get full answers on, so any help on that would be wonderful also.
Does the mares water break with a red bag?
Ive also read that compromised foals tend to come on the early side so I am stalling Indy at night now.
She is a maiden mare also... Here are the pictures I have from today, day 297...
