hey i agree i say a yes have you tried placing your hand just down from her udders you should be able to feel foaly moving about xx
She is booked into see a reproduction specialiast at the end of the month, although im still not convinced there is no foal in her tummy...
Discharge from her vulva and wax like beads (small) have formed on her teats
until october is here i would not be atall surprised if i go to the yard and see two in her stable!

I have two mares that had foals in 2009. One mare, her udder never really went back small. She is a good doer and often looks like she is pregnant. Her bag looks like your mares and her teats are fat and look like they are full of milk. She also has a swollen area in front of her udder. Both my mares get the llttle crysalised secreations in the opening of their teats same as in your photo, neither are back in foal. Both have easily expressed fluid. My vet saw her recently and said it is often a symtom of being overweight. When did your mare have her last foal?
Sadly not i have been keeping her in light work incase she is just fooling me with her obese apperance!!
I'm very surprised that you have seen no foal movements yet if she is in foal TBH. If you look long enough when she is quiet (eating, resting or grazing) you should see something other than their normal breathing even in mares that do keep things quiet just before they're due. You might have to wait up to half hour to see movement though, are you being patient enough to wait that long?
