Horses!!!!!!!!

She's about a year now. Today they got out of the barn, which was tied with steel chains! They are so naughty.
 
With horses, due dates are just an average. They can go earlier or later; it is far better that the foal be born "late" than early. While there are certain signs and behaviors that often indicate that the mare is getting close, the gals don't read the books, and each mare is different. Until you have experience with one particular mare, you can't know what she will do. Some mares wax up a lot; mini mares often don't wax at all. Some mares drip milk for days, a few don't really get a filled-in udder until the are very close. Maiden mares are particularly difficult to figure out, since they haven't a clue, either!
She was due today so maybe she will have the foal soon. Her last due date is April 6Th. Another mare that was due the same day as Sugar, the pregnant mare, already had her foal more than a week ago. Her udder is progressively getting bigger it has had a little bit of a grouth spirt lately.
I agree. Miki was over a week late and we knew her breeding date to the minute. I wouldn't try to express milk too much. That first milk is loaded with colostrum and necessary for the foal's antibodies.
Alright thanks. I am so worried something will go wrong.
Ederob thank you, she was about 350-400 pounds underweight and hadd no muscles. We adopted her from houston spca and she is on tv every now and then.
That was so great of you to adopt her. I watch the Houston Spca from time to time maybe I have seen her! What color is she? Name?
This is not my horse, nor my photo i found it online but i thought i was beautiful.


That is a beautiful picture! The foal is so cute!
