Mare ready to foal?

[breezy farm]

She is really restless, up and down, not her usual sleep.

 

[Equuisize]

Hey there is a full moon this week end .... maybe the pull

of the moon will get her serious about getting down to foaling.

 

[AnnaC]

She has certainly been more restless tonight when compared with the last two nights. Perhaps the foal is on the move again?

Close watching needed I think, just in case!

 

[LittleRibbie]

Perhaps its now time to stop using the F word on this thread....

......

Just a thought!!

 

[AnnaC]

To my fellow watchers - I have to go check on the mares and foals to make sure they are inside their barn (may have to shut them in) because the weather is blowing up a nasty rain storm. Will be about an hour. I know it is nearly morning, but hope you are still watching Suzie?

Cheers!

 

[supaspot]

blowing a storm here too Anna and Ive just been and put mine all in the barn , its dreadful and has been all day

 

[AnnaC]

I'm back! Glad to see all is well with Suz, obviously getting close to breakfast time! LOL!!

Sue, I know you have had it worse than us today, North Wales too. But it's just getting to us down South now and is in for the night and tomorrow morning by the sounds of it. I do wish 'Summer' would arrive!!

Mares and foals now safely in the barn, munching on piles of hay - foals down and snoozing in the straw, so everyone happy.

morning everyone

about to go feed the ponies

Hi Sue, how are you? glad you could stop in and check on Suzie

hope the weather clears up for all of you in Wales!!

the times that I was up during the night she was quite restless for what she normally is like at night...

I hope everything is alright with Renee and Karina, I haven't seen them on here in a litle while... Renee is prob at the fair again

 

[AnnaC]

Hi Guys,

Sorry havent been on all day as I somehow ended up in the hair salon ALL Day. I was in for 11.45 am and didnt get out till 3.15. But of course now I am GORGEOUS so I suppose it was worth it

:rofl

I havent had a chance to see the ladies today and will be off to bed shortly but I will be back on the pay roll tomorrow (did I tell you the bill was in the post - somethings gotta pay for the hair

)

Weather had been dreadful and typical I decided to go mad and have the hair straightened and I had to be under the umbrella all the time so I didnt end up back as a fluffy poodle.

Went out to dinner then this evening with a couple of friends to the village and a new little restaurant that opened up and had a lovely time with some gorgeous food and a bottle of wine (and my sinful baileys coffee).

I hope you have all had a good day and Cassie I hope you have a good day and I am back in action again tomorrow.

 

[cassie]

I'm sure you look stunning karina!!

have a good night sleep glad you had a lovely night

Goodnight Renee wherever you are...

hope you had another great night at the fair

Suzie isn't very settled today I dnt thunk...

 

[cassie]

Suzie is lying down but not in her usual spot... I'll keep an eye on her I might duck home of she doesnt get up shortly...

 

[MeganH]

I was going to say she is flat not in her normal spot..

 

[cassie]

Hehe thanks for watching Megan

i might go home n check on her in a bit if she doesn't get up... Usually she has a few rolls n gets back up again...

Horse to the right is smartie now penny just got up she copies everything he does lol funny little girl!!

Suzie is still down... Hmmm

 

[Wings]

Maybe she's just enjoying the sunlight? I know mine wish they were!

 

[cassie]

I was out there for about 5 min while she was down I was even talking to her and she neighed at me and stayed down flat... :hmmmm: she then rolled and got back up. I wasn't planning on getting her up. even if she was foaling,

she was breathing very heavy when she was lying down and was still breathing heavy when she was up and walking around, she is now having a bit of a nibble of some hay but its very half hearted...

Bree its not sunny here lol its overcast.

I'll still just keep an eye on her I think.
