Her breeding dates were Aug 30-Sept 4, 2007. She was confirmed via ultrasound at 60 days. She's obviously pregnant! She's had several foals in the past, but this is my first experience with a donkey foal....or mini for that matter. We've not had a foal born here (QH) in three years, so I'm a little out of practice! Of course, I'm an eager, impatient "mom" waiting for my girl to foal!
Her bag has not filled out much. Maybe she will be one of these who doesn't bag up until right before or right after she foals? How common is this? Or maybe I'm just too impatient waiting! She is stalled at night now, and I have my barn cam set up, but I am not camping out in front of it yet, or making checks, as I don't think we're at that point yet. But it may be that I'm way out of practice, and not sure what I'm looking for.
These photos are actually from Tuesday....I can take more tomorow. Her hip bones are actually more prominent now. I do have one photo from today, I actually took it from in the house.....but she was walking like she was on a mission! I'll include it here as well. You can't really tell in that pic...but she's more sunken in under those hip bones.... but she doesn't have the big "V" shape...but maybe it may not get as prominent as I'm used to in my QH mares?
Thanks!
