Hello!
It's time to start Marestare for this year! I took a year off from foals last year and this year am expecting 4!
My first due (I hope!) is on Cam now. You can see her here: http://www.marestare.com/fcam.php/alias=hetra
Dana is a 6 year old ASPC/AMHR mare. This will be her first foal for me and I can hardly wait!
Dana was bred in February 2013. She then came back into heat in March and April and was bred again in early May and again in June when she came back into heat again. She continued to show regular heat and was taken in for an ultrasound in August. Imagine my surprise when the vet said she had a huge foal in there! She could not pin point how far along she was other then the foal was over 3 months old.
Now to add to the fun! Dana had a beautiful filly in 2012 for her previous owners with NO foaling signs! She had a very small udder and that was it.
So I have nothing to go by at this point. = )
To date, Dana has been eating like, well a big horse! Her udder is very small but it does change size with turn out etc. Her tail head might be a little bit loose but she has a tendency to tense up when I'm poking and prodding. And she LOVES to lay down! She sits up and then flops on her side, then sits up again. She likes to alternate it seems to keep me awake. = )
Anyway! I hope you will join us in watching Dana!
To pass the time, please share any stories you might have your mystery mares who kept you on your toes. =)
