Prints is a little over 2 months now and has done well since the one month mark. Some how she has kept herself out of trouble!
Well, for whatever reason Frankie is not producing milk any more.
She is a maiden mare, not sure that has anything to do with anything, just giving info. Frankie never really developed a bag, I would say it was more like a pouch.
Yesterday when Prints tried to nurse, she'd try some, back up and stomp her feet, try again and again do the same. Then she'd walk away frustrated. At first I thought it may be her, but when I checked Frankie, nothing there.
Prints did eat some of the mares grain and hay. What do you suggest I start her on? Foal Lac Pellets? I do know we have that one avaliable where I get my grain. She has come such a long long way, gotta keep her going in that direction. She is strong and healthy and wants the grain, so even though 2 months is a tad early to wean, I think she will do well with the right food.
Thanks for any suggestions you have to offer.
