Now she’s down for good. It’s her time!
looks like she’s not going to need her hooves trimmed for a while!
:eek:
I just tuned in, and wow, she is trying to dig her way to China! I hope she’s pretty close, or she may tunnel her way out of the stall.
I hope a human comes to give her a hand soon.
I don’t see anything happening. She’s just laying there quietly.

Well, hell – now she’s looking comfortable again. And I need to go out for half an hour or so to do the late feeding at the barn – do I dare go?
Ha – there’s a person there now – just dumped a bale of what looks like straw.
Now she is, yeh – after a good hour of pawing and pacing and lying down and stretching out and getting up and…
ETA: Hour and a half!
ETA2: Hee – little Tea-Bao likes to press his butt to mom and run backwards to keep up with her!
Well, crap. What a disappointment.
Now I have to go out to do the barn run. She’ll of course probably pop while I’m out.
Bedtime for me, too. She’ll undoubtedly foal tonight.

Pearl just foaled! It’s a boy! http://www.marestare.com/fcam.php?alias=truecolours
Can someone help me? For Pearl it has this note: Her 2010 in utero foal (perlino and smoky cream option only - cremello is still available!) has been sold to Germany!
So which is the colt… perlino, smokey cream or cremello?
Just got back, in time to learn I’d missed Pearl, and to see that Athena’s tail is wrapped but she’s not doin’ nuthin’ right now.
from what I read on marestare, they were thinking the foal was a smokey cream.
didn’t sound like they were certain though…
That True Colors colt is awfully still. Bad camera, but he just looks dead.
StG
Crap, he looks dead to me too. She just went over to sniff at him and he didn’t move at all.
NO! He’s alive! He just moved a leg and picked up his head!
I just saw him move! Maybe he’s just sleeping.
StG
Thank Og we were both wrong! Oh, yes, he is most definitely alive.
And he’s up!
Phew.
That image is so pixelated it’s like trying to read and ultrasound pic.

The Mare Stare message boards have the owner of Athena posting and she says things aren’t going well and she’s afraid it’s a previa. Vet is on the way.
well, he’s up now so that’s reassuring!
between the dim lighting, the crappy camera and the fact that the foal’s color blends in perfectly with the bedding, it’s hard to tell what he’s doing.
