Well, who's next on the birthing babies?

Mine aren't due till the first or second week of March. Figure as soon as one has one, they'll all drop.

So who's next?

We're due Apr 12

Im a week late praying we will be a couple more days late the high today was 19 the high tomorrow is supposed to be 21 then we are supposed to be in the 40s-50s much more conducive to foaling waiting on 2 babies one paint w/spots for sure one paint/aqha

My first is due in the end of march, so until then, I am living vicariously through all of you and your foalies! LOL

Ok, this works on humans (did 35 yrs ago anyway). First you give them a BIG does of Castor oil. Then you take them for a really bumpy ride.. OK, got it

I will remember that if I am still waiting early next week.... otherwise I will be posting baby pics with lots and lots of happy faces

Hey Lynn YIPEE I LOVE this... Paint babes still my faves guys sorry Hows that cam thing work Can you get photos too GOOD LUCK EVERYONE Can't wait for more newborn snaps A real novelty having spot/paint babe snaps How about more photos of the earlier babes Guys Please

with our barn cam you can just watch the mares on the TV in the bedroom so much nicer with -0wind chill to stay warm and cozy in the bed.... esp since I have already dislocated my shoulder, elbow, wrist by slipping on the ice once this year it hurts like heck. Once we get our website going this spring with all the mares and foals etc.. we will then put in a web cam so hubby can sleep the night away while I am at work then I can check in on the mares from time to time here and call if I think they need human attention.. also my sister and mom in CA can quit calling "do you have babies?" they can just look and see they are driving me crazy of course by the time hubbys prize mare is ready to foal he will be sitting in her stall with a bran mash and carrots pampering her better than I have ever gotten I am sure...

Lynn, I'm sure sorry to hear about your shoulder, elbow and wrist. Man, I can't even imagine how much that hurts. Let us know when those precious things hit the ground.

thanks makes me less than pleasant also makes it good the mares have put off the babies a little can't imagine wrestling foals into blankets...

Well, I sure hope you start to feeling better! I absolutely hate having babies early, but it's the thing. We had a bad freeze down here one time, and even the ones that were in sheds, some of the baby's ear tips froze off, literally. That'd just be my danged luck.

Ive seen a stallion that happend to I don't want my babies with 1/2 ears that would be soo sad.... and trust me my barn is not very warm I don't need any sick babies so momma just better keep her legs crossed till the weekend...

Thanks for the laugh this morning, Lynn!

We need a knee-slapping laughing little facey....

March 9th here? Maybe earlier, She was early last year..

Don't think we are going to be waiting for warm weather... may be a long night will post pics if we get a baby tonight but Im still praying she will wait till the weekend just dont think that will happen.... Im on baby alert tonight I THINK... IVE BEEN WRONG BEFORE AND WILL BE WRONG AGAIN

Hey Lynn Hows it going Any news I SO hope the weather is kind to you I have been willing 0 wind chill & a thaw to mild can't wait for pics

I hope everythings going ok for Lynn! Poor Gal! OUCH!

THis Mare's do to hatch out Phenom's first Paint baby at the end of March...cross your fingers for color PLEASE!

WOOO What a pretty girl What colour are you betting on getting out Any clue She is a looking Mare.

sorry guys false alarm she waxed up on me but since she is new for me she tricked me thats ok still colder than hell here and windy windy windy .... long restless night now Im waiting for the shoer and load of rock and sand for my round pen to be deliver..... soon I will be able to work horses rain or shine yeah Ill keep you posted on baby watch

Thanks Jools, she's a chesnut (sp?, I stink at spelling) and he's a liver chesnut...so I'm sure it will be some flavor of chesnut...I really don't care as long as it's healthy (although "colored" would be a great bonus)....and baby and Mom come out of it ok...I swear, this girl is still a month away, but she has never looked this big! We had an ultrasound done at 14 days, and there's only one foal cookin in there, but even the vet (not Dad, computers scare him) said the foal "just looks big" ..he even did two to be sure "yeah, it's ok, just big" ...this mare can be a witch, but I still love her, she knows her job, and she's good at it...I just pray all goes uneventfully

Hey Thats F.A.B. Chestnut is my Fave If she is a month early in my limited experence that can often mean a FILLY... They seem to 'cook' quicker & come out faster Could be really Don't forget to tell Dad 'HANG TEXAS' It's the U.K. trip he should be a'plannin GOOD LUCK & HAPPY & HEALTHY LANDINGS

Lynn My Vibe for Mild weather could work yet You tell your Gal to keep her legs CROSSED GOOD LUCK...

Kelly I love that Paint mare and foal how pretty...

Im at work calling hubby and waking him to make sure he is checking on mares regularly... got to keep him honest or he won't do it I want to hear his voice and know he is looking at the TV screen or he is HAHA

it has taken an entire hour of the phone ringing to wake him this time poor guy he sleeps like the dead I told him to delete all the nasty voice mail messages I have left on his cell phone something to the extent of you better wake up before I get home or else the evil Lynn on little sleep and too much winter arrives to kick some if there are babies w/o attention we know who will be paying with their personal hide.... Im so over winter babies already never again

Get out the Salamander,(sp) warm up the barn. We are waxed!
