Getting Closer
« on: August 28, 2019, 06:21:51 PM »
Whilst she is not my mare , she will foal at home in the next couple of weeks. Her due date is today. 29/8.

I was hoping the first foal born at home would be mine, but it hasnt worked out that way. What i am determined to do is help get this little one into the world, safely :)

I can't tell in the pics, so what breed?  Is it a mini?  I can't tell size in the pic.

Can't wait to follow along.

Sounds less stress than mini foal watch.   ;)

Sorry all ive been so busy. "Hippie" as we know her here is doing well her udder has doubled since my last lot of updates. I took some photos two days ago, so promise ill take some tonight or tomorrow if I dont get home before dark and post them to compare.

I did put in a special request for a delivery on the 4th sept (which was yesterday here) as this old boy turned 40 :)  Thought that would be one unreal present.
