Need some help from you lovely people i have a pony infoal due match and today i cheaked her over and she is holding her tail up and lost a tiny bit of white clear stuff from behind and her behide vulva was going in and out can some one tell me what that means please
 
No sorry brought her from a dealer who told me she will be due feb march time just been up the yard and she not in very good mood and had a feel of her boobs and squeeze and yellow stuff came out and very soft vagina which is open a little at the bottom
 
only bagged up a little bit but her nipples are really hanging down and at the opening it looks light pink in colour is that a good sign as this is a member of my familys pony and she getting excited now and even had to taking her up the yard gone 8 last night bless
 
Her vulva will lengthen and enlongate, if she hasn't bagged up much i wouldn't think she is imminent mares usually wax up 24hrs before they foal which means her teats will literally have what looks like wax on the end of them, if she is actually running milk she will be imminent. All mares are different and not all are text book! Have you any pics of her that you could post i could get a better idea of how near she is too foaling then. If she has had a foal before her teats will be bigger than normal. I think someone posted a link to a website that showed pics of mares throughout pregnancy which is a good referance i think it was yellow ranch something. Make sure she has a good deep bed of straw from now on and keep an eye on her. You will probably find that one morning you go down to the yard and she will have had it! Good luck and pm me if you want any more advice i have bred 17 foals and still learning lol!!
