Still not sure

[Bonny]

I am waiting on results too! Keeping fingers and toes crossed she is bred for you!

 

[Rocklone Miniature Horses]

Should be here tomorrow. Getting awfully nervous

 

[weerunner]

Make sure your mare would be over 120 days from last breeding though, even 125 days would be better. The closer you are to 120 the greater the chance of error. I've had great success with these tests.

Opps, I see now that she was 120 days back in December. Then you should get a very clear yes or no. Good luck. Hope you get the answer you are wishing for.

[Bonny]

Ack...The suspence is killing me!

LOL!

 

[Rocklone Miniature Horses]

My good lord STILL not here. Thats day five!

The universe is telling me that ive wasted my money cause shes empty

 

[Rocklone Miniature Horses]

It finally came!!!! Now officially on pee watch.

But the gut feeling is she is empty so I'm trying not to be to disappointed.

 

[weerunner]

Can't wait to hear the results.

Had the collection bottle on for four hours, no pee. Going to bed now so had to take it off. Hopefully she will pee when i let her out tomorrow! Noticed how bloody grumpy she is though. Had her in the large stable today so that she would not get the bottle caught on the mini divider and she was so happy. Put her back in her other stall there now and she immediately had ears back at gelding and was kicking the heck out of the door lol shes such a loner. When i get a new horse it will go in the stall and this grumpy woman will go in the large box.

 

[Rocklone Miniature Horses]

Arrrrrgh! Still waiting on pee. Every time i check she has peed but missed the bottle. So i adjust it and wait again. This time i was in and she peed but stopped when i ran in, so i didn't get any of it but got to see the bottle was too high. So have again adjusted. This better not all be a waste of my time

(but my luck means it will be )

You can collect it from the shavings, if I see them do it I go in right away and gather the shavings and squeeze the pee out of them. You don't need much just a tiny bit.

 

[weerunner]

Or even better is a tampon. I use duct tape , going around the belly in front of the back legs and then from the side around her bum and tape to the other side. Then tie the tampon in the center under her tail. You will have a lovely, clean sample in a few hours.

Im going to try the sanitry towel route tomorrow morning, if i dont get anything im going to give up and just go to the vet. She has a little cough thats came on and i would like it checked out anyway. Started the same day i ordered the 120s which is a shame, cause i was torn between vet and 120!

Took some pics today, just because i was in the stable bored for so long. I don't see much difference in what would be nearly two months, apart from weight loss which is always a good thing!

 

[lkblazin]

Ahhh the struggles of pee collecting. Lol I had the same issue. I finally duck tapped a red solo cup to my mares by and put paper towel in the cup. It worked

 

[Rocklone Miniature Horses]

That's basically what I've had for two days. She just seems to miss the cup each time! She's doing it on purpose.

 

[Bonny]

I usually grab a cup, feed them a big bowl of soaked feed, then fill a bucket with water and put hay in it. after they finish the wet feed they eat wet hay. before long they pee and I walk up and grab it right from the stream. keep them stalled and just sit with them. or turn them out but dont go to far from her. The longest ive had to wait was 2 hrs. But heck it was quality time!
