Well Sugar has a cow patty in her stall tonight. She doesn't look loose enoughto foal but last time she didn't show any signs of foaling and she started pushing at 6 in the morning.
I sure hope all goes well for you and your mares. How can you verify if it is toxicity from fescue? Will anything show up in labwork? I lost both my foals this year, one in April from a mare that has foaled several without complications and one last Sunday from a maiden mare, both from terrible dystocias. They were not out on our pastures due to fescue and kept on dry lots but nibbled bits around the fence. Our vet said that would not be enough to cause problems, that they would have to be actively grazing in it. She told me just a run of bad luck for us, but I am looking for some "reason" that I can FIX. Just a SAD deal! I pray all goes well with your girls...sounds like you have a great team working with you, and lots of eyes watching! Thanks for the update.
