Erm, Josie has milk?? Advice please?

[lennysmith]

I think Josie has decided to show Hannah what to do. She bagged up over night and was dripping milk this morning.

It's 4 months since Den was weaned and neither were any trouble at all. I've not noticed any changes in her, and she's not been in contact with him. He goes out to play, but her field is shut as it's a bog, so I cant even put it down to grass or contact.

I though i noticed something last week, but decided I was being daft. Obvioulsy not, It was propperly dripping!

Is this normal, is there anything i can do to dry her up again, or should i leave her? Any knowledgeable ones out there? xx

ETS she 's on no different food, just hi fi lite. No nuts or mix or anything, big fatty.

I am so jealous!

Lol sorry. Trust Josie I'll send some over?? xx

Perhaps she wants to become a foster mum? You could contact the nat foaling bank!

Wonder if she'd take a foal? dont know much about it to be honest. Would she take another one so long after weaning? Would I be able to ride still too? She's loving her work!

Don't worry, I had a mare who suddenly started running milk again a few months after her foal was weaned.

They sometimes do this, just ignore it and it should stop within a week.
Shame she isn'tnear Hannah, it may have got her going!

Grrr... send Hannah some vibes

Well Josie is sending milky push vibes to Hannah and has been all night. Haven't heard anything though so dont think it helped? xx
