Ill second that Lori, All the best

And I love her markings, looks like she is wearing a hat

Any baby news this morning?

 

[Magic Marker Minis]

No, still waiting on a half Arab (shes around 355-360 days), and both mini's (Wind is 339 days and Design is 330 days). They are on their own timetable.

 

[MountainWoman]

Mares will be mares for sure. We'll be here when they are ready. Hope you are getting some sleep.

Ryan that marking does kind of look like a hat. Praying for a safe foaling

Her utters look like they are about to pop. I will be watching for pictures!

 

[Magic Marker Minis]

Her first baby two years ago, her bag was huge. That's why I think she has a few more days.

Lol I saw a mares bag fill so much she sprayed when she walked. It was right before foaling bout 10mins. I felt as though I needed goggles, coulda poked an eye out

 

[Magic Marker Minis]

Alrighty, here is a update. River(1/2 Arab) is between 353-359 days. Numbers are correct, not in eith stallion after that. Maybe half way bagged up and messing up all our plans. Finally get to move to Missouri, but have to wait for this baby to be weaned. Baby going, mare staying here. Wind is between 336-345 days. Her bag is tight and warm to touch. Can easily get sticky fluid from nipples, changing this morning from clear to slightly cloudy this afternoon. Nipples are pointing down. Has been V'd off and on for three days and very crabby. Even bite me. Design is at 310-326 days and is making steady progress with her bag.

Not long for wind now MMM.

Best wishes for a safe foaling

Here's for everyone needing a baby fix, with other mares stalled out. Zazzy will be two weeks old on Wednesday. He got to try on our smallest halter yesterday for a few minutes. He has been introduced to the herd. Had his hooves rasped due to long toes and setting back on his heels in the back. He has become a little adventurer. and nickers when he sees us. He will come running over for his scratching. And yes, one of the pictures is him playing with my Pitbull cross. I trust her with the babies more than the actual LGD.

omg so cute playing with the dog

 

[Magic Marker Minis]

He loves Breeze. Everytime he sees her he goes over to chew and climb on her. She just lays there and takes it. We had two yearling colts three years ago that would bite her tail and ears. They would actually drag her around and she never once tried to bite. If it hurt, she woyld yelp and leave. She also played tag with one of our fillies. She would chase the filly around, than vise versa.

 

[MountainWoman]

He's a doll baby. I bet you are in love with him. So glad you get to move to Missouri. I know you have wanted to for a long time. Did you find your place yet? Just wondering if you'll be close by.

 

[Ryan Johnson]

Zazzy is Lovely , I really want him LOL

 

[lkblazin]

zazzy is toooooo cute. I just love seeing how they change over the first few weeks when they unfold.

 

[Magic Marker Minis]

Sara, we have to wait to find out what the final settlement is. They had to postpone the closing of the building because of weather. Reschedule is at end of this month. Should know by end of April. Looked online at a place in Ava. Ryan, I'm keeping him for now. Had a colt two years ago that someone wanted. She also lived in Australia and said the shipping would be pricey. I think you will pass.

 

[Ryan Johnson]

yes it would be extremely expensive , im happy to admire him from here

Zazzy is adorable! I had a pit that looked like yours. Loved him so much. I will have to find a pic and post it. His name was Chief and he weighed right at 100 lbs. he liked to curl up in our laps.
