So Jasmine was bred one time only on June 13th, 2010. Did not come back into heat at all. Then in February while still cold and very very wet. She started dropping her winter coat. Shedding very quickly. The only one in the herd doing this. Gaining belly and weight. Then she would have a small bag that went up and went down. She has been irritable to her sister in the last few months. Actually biting at her at times which is really unusual for this mare. It's like she can't get enough to eat right now but I don't see a definite kicking from the foal. When I look I can see a mucus plug. She acts uncomfortable and can be seen standing butt to fence or wall of shop. This morning I go out to check on her and feed and her bag is flat.
Would love everyones thoughts on this. Vets say weird year for mares do to the strange weather we have had. Also she is completely shed out while the others are still shedding. She is not ill feels fine. I am about to go bald from tearing my hair out.
