Maple Hollow Farms Foaling Camera *New Pics :-D*

o.k so I will write one for a spotty willy

Oh HOORAY - we are back to the limericks again!! (dammed emoties have done a disappearing act again!!)

Where is Heidi, is she not foaling anything this year? She was brilliant with her 'poems' while we were doing the loooooooooooooooooooong wait for her Peanut and Cassie's Suzie!! (oooooop's just read that again - I mean Heidi's mare was foaling, not Heidi herself - sorry Heidi!)

So, thinking caps on everyone - we need poems/odes/limericks/fun and laughter here from now on. OK??

Bossy Anna xx

Oi! Look I found two seconds to catch up on all the foals, you lot just talk too much :rofl

We certainly are a strange lot

All quiet at Maple Hollow

You guys crack me up LOL!!! Anyhoo, we have some loose poo today and slightly fuller udder. Still not full in my book but yall know that doesnt always mean anything. Rear doesnt look loose enough either but I have never foaled this mare out so dont know what she normally does. She is day 307 today. I will probably start watching her a bit closer now that she is settled down and progressing again.

Mom's mare Gorgeous is still driving us nuts :arg! as she has had a full udder and loose rear for a few days now and is very restless. Hopefully will be able to get her online this week since my parents ordered new cameras. Wish me luck on setting it all up

here's hoping

I took some udder pics for all of you to see what you think. I think she has a decent size udder but it is still soft so not full yet. Her rear is not loose either. She does have loose poo still and is loving getting brushed as she is shedding lots! Its hard to tell what her belly shape is doing as she doesnt have a huge baby belly, she is just kind of fat in general.

oooh verty exciting! good luck with foaling! hoping it is soon for you all!

Goodness, that's quite a bag Melinda - even if you dont think she's quite ready, that bag together with some loose poos, well I'm glad you are keeping a close watch on her!

Not long to go now!

1.55 am and she is down sternal sleeping

3.30 am and she is down resting again.

Still about the same udder, was maybe a bit fuller but then I turned her out to play and went back down a bit. I let her out with my show mare and filly today and she seemed happier to be alone after they left LOL! They both were a little high energy for her liking, she got along better with the 3yr old since she was calmer but the yearling never stopped moving and she was happy to let me take her away hehehe. I just was hoping if I gave her a friend it would help her settle in better and so far it seems to have worked at least for a while. She could be just tired now as she played pretty hard, she is pretty ornery . I finally broke down and clipped her belly so she is ready for if she ever decides to foal. She thought the clippers were wonderful and had her lip wiggling the whole time .

She had a quiet night and laid down a few times, she is settling in at night .

WOOOOHOOO!!!! We FINALLY have a foal! Gorgeous had a nice lil bay pinto colt! Will share pics later :-D.

Congratulations!!!
