Dream's New Foaling Thread

[All Decked Out Mini Farm]

Hello Everyone!

I am starting Dream's foal thread even though she is only 5 months along, as I can't seem to find her old one.

I am sure many of you already know a lot about Dream, as I have mentioned her a ton lol, but for the people who don't, she is my 37" AMHR Sorrel Frame Overo LWO+ who is bred to a gorgeous Black Splash Overo LWO-. She had a gorgeous Maximum sabino overo colt by him this year and is infoal to him for a 2013 foal.

Here is Dream and Rio.

Hi! I thought I had better come to this forum and start to learn about eveyone's barn cams and threads. Still a little confused tho lol. So glad I did because my Missy is at day 177 today, so in 3 days we hit the six month point! I only know this because she was bred only once and I guess they both decided to make the most of it. I thought she was getting way, way to wide at this stage but maybe I shouldn't be so worried reading your post. I had to take her off of our grass mix hay because it had fescue in it, so now she is on alfalfa which I really don't like. I can't find any other kind of grass hay here now, hopefully I will in the next 5 months but it is doubtful around here. I don't think I can even use this grass mix for bedding or foaling. Hope someone has advice on that. She is bred to my avatar Masq, so this foal will most likely be a bay base, but will certainly be colorful with a bay tobiano/sabino dam and a bay splash/sabino sire!

Glad to find someone already who's mare is due when mine is. I have a wireless barn cam setup and a wired barn cam setup, but wondered if Marestare is the only way to have extra eyes helping here. If it is I just might go that route after spending almost 3 full months last time trying to watch every night myself. But most of all for Missy even tho I am very private and cringe at others watching us lol.

Nice to know you have a mare that is close to mine too!

We feed our minis 60/40 hay and Bermuda pellets. We put straw in there stalls the month before they foal. Your mare and stallion sound gorgeous! Hoping for a colored foal for you! My mare is hitting the 6 month point too. I unfortunately don't have my minis on my property, I board them at a friends house who also owns and breeds minis, so I am not able to have marestare up, hopefully will be able to when we have them on our property. I would love to help watch, and I am sure many of the wonderful ladies on here would enjoy helping too!

Keep growing that belly, Dream! We are all very anxious to see that LOUD little one you're cooking!!

Thanks Diane! Super excited! Dream is officially 159 days today.

My third cut alfalfa has a 40 to 50% mix of Orchard in it which makes me happy! I also found grass pellets at another feed store, so added to Missy's Safechoice SC she is getting a well rounded diet and I don't have to fret about it now. Missy's belly is getting well rounded too, and with her winter coat she looks like a little blimp lol.

@Rubyviewminis - Very cool!!

Sorry I haven't been around guys! School has been kicking my butt! I am in drama class and we are doing a play, so I have been rehearsing my lines for the past 2 weeks. Plus by the end of this year/ January, I am going to be taking Acting classes up in Beverly Hills. Going to be crazy busy. :O May 6 is going to come so quickly! Dream is 192 days today! Haven't been out to see her in I think 2 weeks, so don't have any updated pictures unfortunetaly.

But will hopefully be going out to see her tomorrow, that is if I memorize all my lines. Ahhh! I think I am about to go insane. First time ever doing a play, and of course the director has to pick the longest play on earth, and of course he picks me for the main part. But I am really excited! My drama teacher wants me to persue acting up in Los Angeles, she says I am one of the best actors in her class, so I am very pleased to hear that.

We will see what next year brings me, hopefully a lot of excitement.

I will update you guys with more pictures if I am able to go out tomorrow to see Dream and Crystal. Hopefully I can!

How is everyone doing? How are your guys's minis?

I'm sure Dream is doing fine with your friend, but we would love to see some pics if you do manage to make a visit!

Hello Ladies!

I have been so busy! Haven't been out to see my girls in 3 weeks!! I miss them so much, but I am hopefully going to see them this Saturday. I was able to get some pictures a couple of weeks ago and I wanted to share with you guys! She is 248 days today... only 3 more months to go! I am hopefully going to be getting at least one more mare this year for next years breeding season, and I am also going to try and breed Crystal this year. Would love a foal out of her before she gets old. These were all taken on my iphone, that's why there not high quality LOL!

 

[All Decked Out Mini Farm]

Such a pretty girl, and you can tell, she was totally enjoying herself!!!

Yes she was!!

How are your horses doing? And you as well.

 

[AnnaC]

I see Dream is still her sparky self!! Great pictures of her enjoying herself - and that scenery in the background is fabulous. Dont forget your camera on Saturday, we need lots of up to date pictures of both your pretty girls.

 

[All Decked Out Mini Farm]

She loves to get out! Thank you - California is beautiful, as is every other state! Although its been colder then I like, but I can't complain! I am actually going out tomorrow and I will definitely make sure to bring my actual camera so I can take some better shots of her and Crystal.

 

[All Decked Out Mini Farm]
