billswife99: I had to laugh at that question as I had to ask the same thing last year!
Yes, they do lay down and the legs go out straight, not curled up. Since I can never catch them giving birth I don't know much. Hope you have better luck. |

First the front hooves/legs, then head come out - it's quite astonishing. :D Minis can have some trouble with the sac being thick & not breaking open, so that's one of the reasons we all help watch, so we can call them & someone will be in the stall with her if they aren't already. |
She is laying down!!!!
|
She's just teasing us again :lol: She loves to lay down, because she knows we start getting excited :roll:
|
See how she is "talking" and yawning? that is another possible sign of getting closer :wink:
|
Is this her first one?
|
I want to say that Kay was saying it is her second foal...and that she foaled about midnight last year.
|
watching here, amma, don't think she is close, just teasing us!!!
|
I remember an old saying my Momma used to use - "A watched pot never boils" LOL Maybe Patches heard that one too and is trying to wait until everyone has lost interest. Fat chance!
|
She wants to wait until it is dark outside...very dark...the moon has to be just so....with venus and mercury and mars in just the right position :wink:

She sure is acting differently this evening...from where and how she is standing to all of the yawning...her belly is not as low...the outline of her hind legs are more pronounced...hmmmmm :?
|
I've been watching all afternoon and now a HUGE Bad storm is coming and I have to shut down. If we don't lose power...I'll check back in though
|
Hi Rusty!!! Wish you could tell us what you think, after checking her out :?

|
What did he see???Maybe some tiny hoofs???She does seem different even from the last few days...Maybe she is seeing the light.....
|
Somebody just came in and checked on her so maybe will will get an update.
|
When I was watching earlier, she was just flicking her tail!
|
Kay is gone to a horse show, I don't know that Rusty will be getting on the board to give us updates....although it is tempting to give him a call LOL
|
She's going to have her head in that corner for a while....she's never been one to walk away from her food :roll: :lol: :roll:
|
OK I'm off to bed - hope they'll be a foal in the morning! Nitey nite all.
|
Good night Kathryn, Jacqui and I have been watching and decided this is all a hazing thing for us newbies!!! :lol:

Ok, here's the thing, I've been watching her on and off and she doesn't look any different to me :cry:
Nope, don't think she is preggy at all, false preggy! :wink: If she goes tonight, I will be supprised! |

not in NC there ain't! :lol: :lol: |
nice rolling, no don't get up :?
|
See Kyle (?) with the flashlight... he is checking under her hood ! LMAO
By the way I am back and what is this business NO BABY ! Hey Patches, Tusty is tired and hurt, Kay is disappointed and Kyle really doens't want to have to help deliver a baby :wink: Sharon |
Still nothing! UGH!
What's with the flashlight? Kay doesn't use a flashlight! lol She looks like she has dropped a little. Her back looks swayed again. I sure do hope she waits for Kay to get back, but then again, Kay says that her legs/hooves aren't good (if I remember correctly), so she needs to foal NOW! BTW...that's Rusty out there |
That's it Rusty....pamper her...pet her...groom her....get her all feeling primped and beautiful for the big event tonight!!! Maybe this is what she has been waiting for...the princess treatment :D :D :D
|
I think Rusty is have "a talk" with her. lol
HIT THE EJECT BUTTON!!! |
OOPPSS Sorry Rusty...
|
Maybe she is wanting someone to do the Foal Dance?
