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

The web cam was taken off because too many people on hear criticize and are very rude!! This mare was scanned and it was found that the foal was not presented in a good position for birth. This is the reason they were so keen to be there and HELP the mare and foal. Her vet is on line watching all births and she DOES know what she is doing.
If you don't agree with her methods then don't Bloody watch.

it had nothing to do with this forum anyway, it was the yuku/fhotd one that she objected too. i doubt steph even knows this one exists
 
i dont see what the problem is. everyone is getting so wound up by this story. the foal is getting vetinary care. hes in the best hands. from my eyes, she was a little OCD on the mucking out but really. it wasnt like she was beating them up! the response has been mad. the replys are like shes gone in, kicked the foal and slapped the mare about. all she done was help the mare give birth, towel the foal and help it stand. i worked at a very well known stud and she did nothing different to how they did it. if it was a mare of mine, id be in the stable making sure everything is going okay! the same as if i gave birth my mum would be making sure me and the baby where okay. if something happened, you would kick yourself for not regualry checking. i really think its been blown out of proportion. there is no cruelty going on.
