Well while we’re waiting for the moms-to-be, check out [Molly the Barn Owl](http://www.ustream.tv/theowlbox) in living color with sound. She has 4 healthy owlets and a pantry full of dead rodents to feed them. ---

Is that a teeny tiny unhatched egg I see there? I wonder if it’s a dud. ---

Athena’s lying down but it looks like she’s just sleeping. Moka, LaDeDa, and Lady are all just chillin. ---

Status as of quarter past 10:00 a.m. – Moka’s out again. Athena, LaDeDa and the three Pacific Pinto beach balls all look bored with waiting but uninterested in going through with resolving it any time soon. ---

I just saw Barry do something I had no idea horses would do. Mandy peed, then Barry did his sniff, sniff, face in the air thing, pawed at it a bit then peed on it like a dominant dog. ---

Hah! Barry appears to be trying to eat the camera. He’s a hoot. ETA: Tea-Bao is cavorting like a little mad man. He’s kicking up his rear legs - which are still cow-hocked, BTW. ---

Moka had her foal!!! It’s a colt! With at least one white hind foot, it would appear. ETA: yes, right hind anklet. The Tweet on the cam page is as of 21 minute ago, and the Mare Stare thread indicates it happened at quarter of noon. Ah. Now there are two women in the stall and the baby’;s up on its wobbly feet. Sniffing noses with mom. It’s got a wee star. ---

They’re just getting latch on with Moka’s foal; I wonder if the time on the Mare Stare board is as of Colorado, the Elements farm time zone, or the Midwest, or wherever Mare Stare is located. ---

On Pacific Pinto’s cams, number 2, Cloud is looking restless, pacing in circles. ---

I called Cloud’s owner, Joanne, on her cell phone, to let her know about Cloud. She’s glad I did, is headed in from the fields now. Said they have four or five more term mares they need to get into foaling stalls; are moving China and Tea-Bao out to make room for one. ---

Blast! I stayed up all night, 2 nights in a row, for Moka. Then she goes and drops her foal in the middle of the day! Mozeltov! ---

Ha! Moka’s colt wants to lie down but can’t quite figure out how to work the leg-folding to get there. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/live-foaling-cam/531800.md?page=45) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/live-foaling-cam/531800.md?page=47)
