Great job Sheryl! Obviously, I loved "Scanny's" page! I'm so glad she is in such a wonderful home and hope she brings you lots of pretty show babies!!! Have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Hi Auntie Stacy! And thanks for the kind words. Debbie told me that I win the prize for picking the best new owners of my horses. Well, I don't know that I really pick them, but I sure do appreciate it when they say nice things about my horses, thank me for my hard work, and when they keep...

I can't get there either. I contacted Rich and the problem is with their domain registrar, register.com. It is being worked on, but according to Rich it is a very slow process. It is not affecting everyone. I haven't been able to get on since last night and am equally frustrated.

Hi Lisa, Sorry you're having trouble with your new baby. Does she have a sucking reflex? If not, you should get the vet to give her the plasma IV. She may be a "dummy foal" if she is not sucking, but should come around. Good luck!!

My congrats to you both! Chesa emailed me Possum's photos this morning and I was so thrilled to see how he has matured and how excited she is! It is a pleasure knowing Chesa and I've been so impressed with her knowledge and care of her horses. I hope to get to know Joy as well and I wish you...

nah...I think it "irritates" the horses and makes them go faster so the music will end quicker! And, Neil, I'll be there Wed afternoon for the duration...wandering aimlessly around Stars, Alliance and Nirvana...

LOL! We've asked for YEARS to get better music...ain't gonna happen. Also, the R's had better video coverage it seems...oh well, better than nuthin'

it's up for me. Do remember to hit the "play" button!

I use the colostrum refractometer (scale goes to 30). What I have found (and others have told me), is that what you really look for is a big jump up and the foal usually comes between 12-24 hours later. Some mares you miss the jump, and some register at the top of the scale for days, but when I...

Sad ....thanks for letting me know!

Anybody know what After Dark brought?

Thanks. I sort of thought the blood vessel thing too. I will check it again and see if I can get enough to take to the vet.

No, this is different from colostrum it is more the color of a Dreamsicle! (For lack of a better description.) I've foaled a lot of mares and never seen this "color" before and it may mean absolutely nothing, I just wondered if any one else has seen this...

I've got a mare that is due to foal (approximately 330 days). She has a bag, is an experienced mare and she has milk. I use a refractometer to test the milk and tonight is the first time I've tested with her. The milk tested Fair, but it is opaque and ORANGE , maybe somewhat sticky. I've never...

Hi everyone! I just found this thread..didn't even know it was here...sorry....It has been a whirlwind here with three babies in 2 weeks and two of them 2 days apart! Here are some photos.... BROOKHAVEN SECRETS SEVENTH HEAVEN, filly foaled 2/1/08 BROOKHAVEN SECRET BLACK TIE AFFAIR, colt...
