Marestare - Mare looks like she is in labour (?)

[chameleon]

Tail bandaged up ready, holding her tail out, pacing the box, pawing the ground, been dripping milk for a few days.....is she in labour?????

Hope so!

I hope so! Certainly looking very uncomfortable.

 

[spike123]

I don't think she is going to be too long.Owner in and out checking on her and she is definitely straining a fair bit now.

 

[moody_mare]

looks fairly uncomfortable bless her, hope it isn't too long!

Think I will be spending Saturday night in front of the laptop!

I have missed 4 births at Mulligans Farm on marestare so I am determined to see this one through!

 

[stroppy]

Looks like its all systems go!!

 

[BSJAlove]

well, it says shes dripping milk now so hopefully soon!!!

 

[Spring Feather]

Yes she does appear to be in 1st stage labour. That stage can last a couple of hours though.

I got 2 DVD's in for tonight and now I'm glued to the computer! Can't wait as never seen a mare foal live before!!xx

Heather put comment on her mulligans farm thing to say she part owns this horse and she is in early labour - also Sadie at mulligans is very close apparently

Been watching this mare for days, I saw Fanali from Elements foal the other week on marestare and my sister saw KZ from there foaling, so will be watching this one closely tonight Hopefully she has a less traumatic time than Fanali

i have been watching her since last friday - never seen a foal born and determined not to miss her now - warned OH i will sit up all night if i have too!!

 

[Kokopelli]

Sorry if I'm being very dim but is she going to come back?

[Allover]

I'm loving the fact I have windows 7 atm I have both HHO and marestare up on the screen as I can't take my eyes off it, so worried I will miss it.

i watched one foal the other but looking at the local time underneath they all foal at odd times of the day. usually its middle of the night, but all are different u guess.

Gah! Another pooh. As a foaling virgin (pardon the pun) how long is an average labour time for a horse? I have wine, a hot water bottle and my toast just pinged so am in for the long haul.

 

[muddygreymare]

Haha koko, I forgot you could do that, now have it on multiscreen thingy too haha. Saves switching windows, thanks I hope i dont miss her foaling, the computer will be on all night with barn alarm methinks

 

[Freya]

Oh I wish I hadn't seen this post, I watched Fanali give birth and that had me spellbound and anxious all the way through it! It should have an addiction warning on the website

I think April still has some hours to go, best get the wine on the go

Is the camera flickering for anyone else?

Well enjoy your vino as she most likely will not foal with all that commotion going on around her. The stages of labour vary depending on the mare and the environment she is in. My mares are normally pretty speedy once they start stage 1. We always keep well away from them when they are in this stage and it seems to work as they don't hang on for too long.

Gotta' love windows 7 sometimes

Yep keeps happening to me to

 

[silverstar]

Just checking, she's still not had the foal.

 

[Kokopelli]

She looked close a few times, I have my eyes glued to the screen.

 

[comet&joe]

oh come on foal! all you need to do it pop out ! Lol

 

[muddygreymare]

Does anyone know what the random furry black thing is on the wall near the camera? Mare is looking more uncomfortable and keeps pawing the ground and walking around alot and stuff
