So sorry for your loss Pitter Patter, Cottontail had a wonderful life with you so try to take comfort in the fact that she passed in a home where she was loved and taken care of. Thinking of you.

I think you might be right! To be honest pictures are very deceptive right now - she’s getting quite the thick coat again so she definitely looks big but it could just be because of the fluff at this point. Pepper has absolutely grown looking at the pictures. Very strange situations for both of...

Hi everyone, haven’t updated in a while as there really has been nothing to update! I decided that the vet made a mistake and Rosie is faking so I turned her out with the others. Then my farrier came out last week, looks at Rosie and says “Oh NOW she looks pregnant!” 😳🤦‍♀️ Honestly at this stage...

Beautiful! So happy for you that you finally have her home with you!

I agree it was nice to see, although it was rather short lived as shortly after this her belly did something strange that startled her and made her prop back up and look at her tummy a few times. I have noticed that lying stretched out on her side is getting fewer and further between and...

So sorry to hear about Squirt’s foal MerMaeve, just heartbreaking. Hopefully you can sort something to bring her home with you soon. Sounds like you and Snickers had a lovely walk, Pitter Patter! I hope you can get some answers from Pepper and Cottontail soon, and Snickers for that matter...

Nope! Wishing she would just give birth already or tell me that she’s just faking the whole thing so I can remember what it was like to have a full night’s sleep!

Hahaha no I’m pretty sure between the vet checks, urine test, belly growth and movement etc it all points to her being in foal, it’s just frustrating being at this point in the game with nothing really to show that she’s getting close. It was 3 weeks ago now that I was doing the “is she in heat...

Thank you, so was I! Nothing is going backwards I suppose, but the going forwards is very very slow. I just want to go out there one day and woah there’s a big udder and a mega loose back end. I’m getting so frustrated with it all that I’m tempted to just say she’s not pregnant and turn her out...

Any news with Squirt? Absolutely nothing is new with Rosie and it’s depressing 😔

Who is to say that Volt is for sure the sire though? If the vet estimated 4-5 months then it could be possible that Snickers was indeed pregnant when you got her, just very early on? Or the vet estimate could be off too - she could be earlier than he figured, or later I suppose too. So many...

I had the same thoughts cross my mind - he said 4-5 months and it was towards the end of April that they were teasing Volt across the electric fence...unless he was really brave and got to her through the fence 🤷‍♀️

Today Rosie seems and feels really small. It’s almost as though her belly has shrunk overnight - she doesn’t look really wide, not crazy low, she feels thin almost over her spine and in her hind quarters. Her udder feels the biggest I’ve felt it though, but still small. No change to her back...

Yeah that was very uncalled for. But yay, you have your answer with Snickers and you’re going to get a foal from her and your little guy so that’s great news!! Don’t feel stupid at all, I must admit I’m very surprised about Pepper! Who knows, maybe Rosie isn’t even pregnant and we can have a...

Hope you feel better soon!
