Checked all the mares tonight and groomed them up, checked udders, behinds, etc.
Got Betty in and I have not gotten anything out of her bag before today. One teat gave me very dark yellow, ever so slight sticky, clear non opaque fluid. So being the eternal optimist I of course checked the other side too. To my shock I got a palm full of very dark brown almost old blood looking fluid. She is 320 days.
She has no fever, bag is not large, tight, or hot. No pain or discomfort at all. Of course it was after office hours. Since she is bright eyed, eating, seems fine in every other way I chose to not panic and wait to see what I find tomorrow.
I checked again right before we came in and I still got it but only a little bit.
Her tail is somewhat loose and butt getting a bit soft but vulva is still tight.
She has had foals before, the last being season before last and never any problem before. She is the dominant mare and I have not noticed any evidence of injury from a kick or anything through the winter.
OK, I think I have covered everything. Any idea why this would be?
