    raising another rejected foal

    I don't know why I did it...but after a maiden mare rejected her foal last year...I thought it was just a bad birthing and scared dam that caused this girl to turn on her baby....so I went ahead and bred her back...wrong thing to do..pregnancy and foaling went great...and she actually seemed to...

    Pics of foals born on Memorial Day...an hour apart

    A maiden mare foaled first at 9....I've never had a foal born this way...instead of coming out straight...he was turned....it was odd to see the head turned sideways...and an hour later the dam of the maiden mare foaled....I don't have names yet...but I am so happy with their color....

    anyone up that has any ideas for a preemie foal just born

    My mare just foaled...a reg bag...but I got the baby out okay....Mare's first breeding date was May 19 of last year...so I think that puts us at 316 days. This isn't a maiden mare...she has always has plenty of milk...but has nothing tonight. What can I do? Becky in Ohio

    Little colt did not make it

    :no: I knew last night when I gave him his shot that it wasn't looking good....his gum color was not good at all...but I was still hoping for the best. I guess he just couldn't fight it any more.
