    Little Miss... expecting?

    Well I did the WeeFoal test on her and it came back negative/inconclusive. I emailed the woman I bought it from with a picture and she said it looked to her like a positive right on the verge of the 120 days, however, that isn't possible as she would be 6 months along, so I'm not sure what to...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    Still waiting on the WeeFoal test to get here (darned mail is SLOW!)... but here are a few pics of Miss and Remi I took today. I really see a difference in the way Missy looks.. I'm quite sure she is bred, here's hoping! Please excuse their pasture condition... they were just pulled in out of...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    I went ahead and ordered one of the WeeFoal tests, so hoping that gets here in the next week so I will know for sure... looking back on dates, Miss went to the stud on May 29th, and the stud covered her the 30th for the first time and then they were together until June 15th or so and he covered...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    Just updating with Miss's November pics... I think there's been some progress in the pics from the back.. still can't really tell from the side shots but.. here they are! And of course some of little Mr. Remi showing just how terrible he looks so in a month or so I can update with some hopefully...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    I would LOVE to be able to "creep feed" him but unfortunately he is turned out with Missy 90 percent of the time (they're only "in" to eat and then back out together unless it's super bad weather... I like to keep them out and moving as much as possible. Missy would find a way to get every last...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    He is currently getting what is called "Atlantic Horse Ration" which is a complete feed, but just the run of the mill stuff... I will go pick up some mare and foal feed tomorrow and get him started right away... we do have "haystretch" pellets which are alfalfa pellets, Little Miss is getting...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    Since I know y'all are such fans of pictures of the little ones, I'll attach some of Little Miss "working", and of our new little colt Remi... would love to get some opinions on Remi's condition... he looks like he's about to drop a foal any time... wondering if he needs more protein in his...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    Hello all, After a long break from the boards, I am back with a long overdue update on Little Miss. As it turns out, she was NOT bred last year, and much to my dismay did not give me any babies to love on. However, she did accomplish much in the last year, being broke to cart and now a much...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    Thank you for all the great replies and information! I feel she is ok to keep working within reason at least until she is uncomfortable (and large). I will keep a really close eye on her and make sure she doesn't get stressed, but she seems to have a really good work ethic and enjoys giving...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    Thank you for the info guys, if you don't mind I do have a few more questions relating to her care... Before I brought the mares home, they were getting hay only. The boarded mare (buckskin) was underweight, and Missy is believed to be pregnant so I started them on oats. I later switched them...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    Well I'm about 90 percent sure she IS bred... I've been watching/feeling for movement using a cold hand on her belly while she's eating and last night I DEFINITELY felt something move, and so did Miss.. she pinned her ears and threatened to bite me (which she's never done) right after a VERY...

    Little Miss... expecting?

    Ok so I tried to get the photo's the way you described, and these are the best ones I could get... I hope they're good enough... she likes to paw when she's tied so it's hard to get one of her standing properly. And one of her pretty face just for fun!

    Little Miss... expecting?

    Hi all, I just wanted to start a thread here to get opinions and to have a record of pics/information on my mare Little Miss (Missy). She is a 6 year old I just recently purchased from a friend of mine. She is not registered. She was pastured with my friend's colt since last June. Colt it coming...

    Nail test on mares!

    I tried the nail test on my mare and a boarder's mare and got Missy (my mare) - filly Elle (boarder's mare)- the nail just spun, but didn't move in a circle motion OR back and forth so not sure what that means. I also tested the gelding I have boarded.. didn't move! LOL. The mares I have...
