Help. Yesterday went to purchase a 3yr old jennet
and came home with 2, the second was a 5 yr old Jenny who is preg. Here is my problem I will try to keep it short... This is my first baby, not sure of when she was bred but she is getting large, her feet are horrable
(farrier coming on Tuesday), she is slightly thin. (Think i have my work cut out for me). She wasn't cared for the best but i am hoping to turn her around. The 3 yr old is also thin but feet are good and in heat. Both Jennies were in a pasture with a jack since late last summer (no month known) Don't know why the 3 yr old isn't bred but. My questions are... Is there anyway to guess how far along she is? How do i get her in better condition for foaling? I know her feet are going to take a little while to fix. Any help will be greatly appreciated. My bible: foaling manual is in my hand and have read it cover to cover.
