mare milking?

[vickyconnolly]

just a quick question, our mare has always produced some form of liquid coming out of her nipples. yesterday there was an unbelievable amount, it isnt a milky colour but very cloudy. any info appricieted.

In Central Asia they ferment it and make a highly alcoholic drink from it - maybe you could start a brewery?!!

Is she is foal?

My mum's mare does that - it is milk, but not full milk (ie its not there to feed a foal) I don't know the full facts but my mum's mare has been milkable for the 12 years we have had her after she had her foal before we got her.

I would definitely get your vet to check her out if you are worried though.

no about 2 years ago someone i know bought her frm beeston thinking she was in foal but it turned out she had had a foal but prob got seperated at beeston, as she was highly sedated. more or less milking since then, but alot more lately.
