Meanwhile, at Glenhill cam 1 there are people in there checking Cassie’s udders and spreading straw! Which is exciting because a couple of hours ago the Glenhill person posted this on the Mare Stare board: “No straw down yet. I am not falling for that trick. I have a bale sitting by the door so if she looks close then I will be ready. Lots of wax with milk dripping.” ETA! Yikes! They just turned on the sound! ---

> [@EddyTeddyFreddy](#): > > Damn! The feed stopped! Did they turn it off? Crap! I sure hope it’s not another risky delivery. I was shocked at the number of **ANGEL COLTS** on the Mare Stare 2010 births thread. (And goodness me but they are fond of bouncing, rolling, praying, cheery little smilies over there.) ---

They’re back to the 4 cameras at the same time. Looks like Susie calmed down quite a bit, particularly after they mucked out her stall. ---

Just checked in on [Heavenly Horse Haven.](http://www.marestare.com/fcam.php?alias=heavenlyhorsehaven) The cam’s back up, and the blurry feed shows what looks like the same mare lying down, so she’s alive. I don’t see any sign of a foal, though. ☹ Wait! She just stood up, and is that a foal in the bedding beyond her? I think so! I can hardly make it out, but I think it is! I think it got up! YES!!! ---

Just heard a voice at Glenhill – “High alert, her water broke.” ---

Just tuned in at 12:30 in time to hear someone say “High alert, her water broke.” and to see her lay down. Eta: aha, you’re watching too then. ---

That’s so awesome, I’ve not seen that before! Are they leaving the blanket on the baby to keep her warm, or to transfer scent from the humans so she’s familiar with them? ---
