[Matt73]

No problem...

Thanks Matt - she does look to be in early labor!

Since I know absolutely nothing about the signs of labor in a horse, what makes you say this? I was just watching her--she has not stopped walking and has been itching her rear end on the stall walls. I'm new to this whole "MareStare" thing--what else do you look for when a horse is about to deliver? Just watching her is making me a nervous wreck!

 

[Matt73]

Lifting her tail. Yawning. Looking at her sides. Pawing.

Boy, if she doesn't foal soon, I'll eat my hat. And knowing the little I do know about mares...I'd better go find a nice tasty hat.

 

[Matt73]

Okay. I think she'll pop tonight. She certainly looks uncomfortable and in the first stage of labour. Then again...what happened last night

 

[Matt73]

Look at their site

I so need to win the lottery!!! LOL

 

[Matt73]

Okay. A lot more active and she'll probably foal when I'm in the barn feeding etc.

 

[Matt73]

God, I hope my mare doesn't do this. If I was her owner, I'd be banging my head against a table LOL.

 

[Matt73]

LOL...As I say that, she goes down and starts pushing! Come on, girl!

 

[Matt73]

OMG!!!!! She was down and having contractions...and now she's up and eating?! Did a dog bark or something? LOL. I'm going to bed...

Looks like she may be ready. Someone in stall with her.
