    Can you tell if a mare is delaying labor?

    I’ve had many many mares look completely relaxed a month before they foal. This is a maiden on day 312 and she foaled day 345. She would fluctuate from this to normal. That is very normal.

    Little guy all dry and a couple days old. Still figuring out those legs. I’ve got his registered name figured out I think. Still working on a barn name. May not know roan status until he sheds, but he’s definitely buckskin.

    Buckskin(?) pinto colt born at 8:30 on 3/1/24. Will get better pics in the morning. He was a bit slow to nurse but I think he’s got the hang of it now. Bess is doing great.

    Stall Cameras?

    Is hard wiring an option? I ran coax cable from my stalls to my house so then I don’t have to worry about WiFi

    One of these days her ph will drop and she will foal. Glad she didn’t last night. Went from 80s to 30s overnight.

    Cooking with bacon grease now! PH is still back-and-forth. But we all know that can change in the blink of an eye. Her behavior was all over the place last night, so I’m not shocked about her progress this morning. I tried to upload a video of her belly watching, but it is not working with me...

    Ph has started to drop. She held her udder great yesterday despite turnout. Ph is now 7.5. We will see if she actually gets serious now.

    Udder starting to get serious. She’s been butt rubbing more and has some crusted blood around girly parts. Milk is now very hard to get and cloudy white but still testing high. Her mood swings are something else, from lovey dovey to angry, uncomfortable mare-tude at the drop of a hat.

    Discharge?

    For sure! Pasture breeding dates can be frustrating. Best to be ready early then too late. So I am with you.

    Discharge?

    As long as it’s not in like the last 90 days it’s ok. She may just be a quick builder. And you are going from which date exactly?

    Discharge?

    Just making sure, she has not had access to fescue right?

    I got an update from the lady I got Bess from. We had the wrong dates, she is 10 days further along than I thought, making her 312 days today. She is progressing daily, and I don’t think she has just a whole lot longer. But we will see lol, she may hold out for another two months just to make me...

    Thanks all. Bess is officially day 300. She’s grumpy and moody. She’s still semi new to me (bought her bred in October). Last night she was swinging her rear and hopping all over. Today she is calm, cool, and collected…that’s a relief LOL. Udder continues to progress. Brix is at 5 and ph is...

    I see this on some of mine from time to time. I monitor them for temp any discomfort. If you are on Facebook you can post in the horse vet corner.
