Tilly (Finn's mom) is blind in one eye. It looked normal when I got her 2 years ago but has shrunk since then so I'm guessing a traumatic injury, it doesn't bother her at all. The problem is it's constantly being bothered by bugs(worse than the other) in the summer and year round she likes to...

I have a mare who had/has a very slight chance of being in foal for mid April/early May. She was bred (by my newly gelded experienced older stud) for 3 days in mid May. She had a bit of clear fluid from her teats for a year before since being weaned. As far as I know that is pretty normal. 3...

I have the vet coming out next week to check Finn, I think he has a scrotal hernia, I hope I'm wrong. She's talking about having me reduce it, which it does very easily, a couple of times a day and keeping a bandage on him to see of it will fix itself before having to have surgery when he's...

Hi Holly, as requested here are a couple pictures I took of Finn tonight. Please forgive how bad they are, I take horrible pictures with my phone, it has a really long delay. He's starting to lose baby fuzz and he's coming in black as expected but he has the same white roaning in the black that...

Tilly foaled early Tue morning last week, July 14. I gave her banamine right after and she's been looking comfortable enough I didn't keep going with it. She's fine but is still being fussy the odd time. Can she still be having contractions after this length of time? I don't notice anything...

I think I'm where I'm supposed to be now. I'm really hoping some of you will take pity on us stressed out waiting for foals and post here. Give us something else to do and think about..please! Anyone with pictures of foal fuzz and then after shedding out AND what colour they are? Anyone that...

Hi, I just adopted a 21 yr old mare from a local rescue, don't even have her yet. Could some of you wonderful experienced people help me with a couple things? I don't know definitely that she's in foal but it's being assumed since she's been running with the same stallion and had many foals for...

Hi everyone, I've given up lurking to post this. Have any of you heard of megasus horse runners? They're a glue in plastic shoe that is new on the market. The company has had financial problems and is trying to get back on their feet. They have a fundraiser going on kickstarter.com. It's a card...

HI, I have a couple questions and figure this is the best place to ask! My mini colt is 4 1/2 months old and has twice started to shed out his baby fuzz but still has most of it. At 3 weeks he lost it on the front of his face then stopped and at 3 months he lost it on his cheeks (mostly), and...

Has anyone had any experience with their foals eye lashes pointing down instead of out? Ollie's eyes are doing better with the antibiotics in them every day but definitely bothering him. They are tearing constantly but at least that is keeping them moist. Sun one was red and swollen with pus in...

This is Izzy. She's had me guessing all summer if she is or isn't in foal, I was told she might be when I got her. I finally felt a kick the beginning of Jan and a few more since then so I'm going with she is. Her belly, what there is of it, has also been changing shape and hanging out more one...

Hi everyone, I've been reading on here all summer and have a question I could use some advise on, you know so much more than I do. I have a rescue mini who I was told was probably in foal when I got her but just felt the foal kick for the first time a few days ago, so now I believe it..mostly...
