Pregnant Donkey Bleeding

[_donkeylady_]

Hi, So I have a miniature donkey that is supposed to foal sometime this week. I went to check up on her and there is a little bit of blood dribbling out. I don't know if this is normal because I missed the birth of my other mini. Is she and the foal okay? Or Is it just because she's going to foal soon? And yes she has all other signs of foaling soon, but bleeding was never in a list.

Do you have a vet who's good with these guys? I'd ask a vet... there can sometimes be a little of what *looks* like blood that is not actual bleeding, but I can't see what you are seeing, so maybe ask a vet. And since this was yesterday, for me writing right now - I would do it ASAP. Or has she foaled? Here is hoping...

Thankyou for replying.
So it ended up not really being bloody discharge, just the somewhat beginning of the foaling process, I feel so dumb lol.
Mama and baby girl are doing great.
