Bought a sweet little mare back in July. She was exposed to stud 24/7 all winter,spring and summer till I bought her. I think she is expecting then at times I wonder ? I am all new to dealing with expecting mares. I swear back around the 1 st of October I starting seeing her tummy move strangely. Been watching her ever since. Haven't noticed hardly any strange tummy movement for a little while but still see and feel some movement once in awhile but not big movements like in the beginning. Guessing foal is getting bigger and not as much room for acrobatics. She is not making a bag yet. This is not her first foal. DH was sweet and for Christmas bought and installed a camera in her stall. I look at her all the time. lol ! All ready for foal except I have not bedding her stall down in straw yet still using wood shavings from TSC. Do have a bale of straw in waiting not sure when I should put it down ? Thought maybe when she bags up but been told sometimes they don't bag till they foal. YIKES ! I hope she gives me a warning so I can get the straw down. Is it real bad if she doesn't give me a warning and has the foal on wood shavings the big flake kind ? I am going to attach pictures of her from day one till now. Do you all think she looks prego ? Do you feel she is getting close ? She was much more round now it seems her belly has dropped and hangs more now. I Sorry so long.
Day I bought her July. Excuse the sun bleaching and dutch boy forelock. Not my doing. She was pasture kept 24/7.
After being with me a month. Still not much in the belly department.
Couple months later. Little more belly look
In November much more belly. She wadded when she walked.
Taken couple weeks ago. Looks like her belly has dropped. Not as round. Sorry not real good angle.
