Yes, this is docs second foal!

Eclipse foaled a gorgeous appy filly at 330pm on Sunday!! Baby is so lovely, cannon bone is 6.75 inches, so not a tall little girl. Doc is making me proud this year. Two foals, two fillies, can't beat that ratio. Thanks to everyone for all the prayers, I really believe it made all the...

1am, no baby yet. No sleep tonight

This is it guys and gals!!!! Eclipse is testing ready, her vulva is loose, flank is empty and her croup is made of jelly. Udder is big and firm and nipples are pointing down. And best of all milk is testing ready. So prayers for a healthy delivery are much appreciated, we are down to the...

Eclipse is at day 317 today. Her udder is hard and hot, nipples are still pointing in though. Her milk has begun to be oily and sticky, not testing quite ready yet, but very close. She has the look of a mare that is ready to be done. I'm guessing this weekend or maybe early next week. But...

Any new news on this mare?

Eclipse at day 311. Looking good but holding tight for now.

Sorry guys, Marcella was testing ready to go on Friday morning. I stayed home from work, no baby. We waited until Sunday night and then Marcella dropped and started contracting strongly, red bag presented itself. I broke that open and went in and found a foot a nose and no other foot...

Ok,, Eclipse is at day 298!!! Baby is still kicking, has not dropped down yet. Looks like she is going to make it guys! And I thank all of you for the good wishes and prayers for little one. Marcella's udder has begun in earnest and she is extremely uncomfortalbe with runny poos for several...

Day 277, and just an ever so slight beginning to her udder!! I think this pregnancy is going to move along right on target. So excited to think I'll finally see a live foal out of this special little girl. Wish you could all see my cameras at night, but I'll have to make due with photo updates.

Were over 9 months now!! 272 days along. She is calm, pudgy and contented. Baby is kicking at meal times. Keep up the good work girls.

I get a fair number of red bags here, but I'm always here for my mares, 29 foalings and haven't missed one yet, so it doesn't worry me so much. I'm there, I see the red coming and break it open before it makes it out very far, from there the delivery goes quite normally except I help it along a...

Day 255, nice strong kick today at breakfast and a series of lovely rolls.

hmmm, I will definitely be testing Eclipse's foals blood when it is born. Could be a very good explanation why she aborted her last two foals.

We are now officially past the day she aborted last year, she's day 253 and baby is still alive and kicking. Thank you everyone that helped pray her through these last few weeks. I really feel good about her holding tight to baby now. Around 66 more days and we'll get to see her little...
