Well today Seneca had a lot of change. One side of her udder is very larger than the other side. I’m sure the other half will catch up soon. She has a lot of edema running underneath her belly. Also her rump under her tail is pointed looking and she is elongated. She laid down [...]

Hopefully tonight goes a little better for Seneca…at least she hasn’t knocked any boards off the door yet. She’s a bit anxious still but I think she’ll get tired before too long and give up. She also pooped in her water last night so I hope she doesn’t make that a habit.
So I’m seeing lots [...]

Well last night was a bit stressful I guess for Seneca. She kicked the door so bad I had to take it off its hinges just to get it open this morning. This afternoon Scott and I will have to screw the boards back to the frame since she busted the screws right out of [...]

Change of plans…Seneca is acting weird so she is in for the night with Panda in the stall right next to her. Seneca’s udder is very full… She is mad that she is in the stall and was pretty upset about it at first, pawing the ground and kicking on the door. [...]

Well we’ve had a drop in temps outside…no baby. A little bit of rain…no baby. Even some snow…no baby. What the heck?! Her udder felt a little fuller and teats are filling. Will she make it till April? Maybe April Fools day. Ought to be able to come up with some interesting names for a [...]

Well…(that’s how I start all of my posts now.) no foal yet and doesn’t look like it will be any time soon. Her udder is firm but teats have not filled yet. If she is going to act like a normal mare and do the whole waxing thing then she is quite a ways off. [...]

Hmm….mare watching is like watching paint dry or even grass grow. I’m wondering if its even going to happen this year. Well??? I know…I know…good things come to those who wait. Now just who was it that said that? Did they ever get what they were waiting for? Could they too have been waiting [...]

Well…I hope Panda doesn’t foal tonight. I’m tired and I need my bed.
purdylady | March 21, 2011
Well…(that’s a deep subject!) another sleepless night at the Montgomery Ponderosa. Panda looks tired and not in the mood to be in labor so I’m betting nothing will happen tonight. I don’t have any clients in the morning and Scott can leave work whenever so of course this won’t be the night that she might [...]

Well, Eidee was for sure this was it…earlier. Now Panda is back to eating her hay. She was out flat acting like it was time to push a baby out but I guess she changed her mind. I see all these other mares of my FB friends having foals…but no…not Panda…she’s going to string this [...]
