She's fine :) still fat though.

No haven't quite had the time to get banner home, works been crazy. It's now scheduled for next week hopefully. It's to drop in temperature massively so Goldie should really shiver off some lbs!

Goldie today. I swear shes put on weight, despite being out in freezing weather with no feed! Gah. I dread to think what will happen if she has hyperlipodemia.

She always got a little extra! I have the smallest land, but the fattest horses. I really worry how it will be effecting her foal. She usually drops a little in jan/feb but who knows. I might clip out the rest of her, and put a light sheet on her so she really has to shiver lol

Some mares seem to get fat on air, and then some just can't seem to gain weight no matter what you do.

With winter, I wouldn't worry, just keep her on your feeding plan, and give her time.  With the cold weather she may start dropping a little weight!

She's a "hunk" -- but a gorgeous one!!!  LOL

Had to laugh my head off. Went in to Goldie with the pee cup she's come to hate and i said "to avoid this being strapped on just do a pee now" and she only bloody went and did 😂

Pure luck - I wasn't even going to use one on her cause I already knew she was pregnant but couldn't resist when I had such a lovely sample. It's lighter than it looks in the photo so it's midterm which is accurate as she's around 150-180 days.

This is the new cheap P-Test. Its cool! Althoght i have to say i find the weefoal ones more exciting cause you get to watch the pee go up and wait with breath held for a line lol

Well, while she's being obedient, anything more you want her to do for you??

Too funny !!
