True dun is vanishingly rare in PRE's so if she is then would be very desirable!

Given this is very, very line bred, maybe it will be a true dun.

As direct a hint as you'll get on here!

Am I the only one who thinks it doesn't look imminent from the photos?
I guess I worked at a stud/foaled broodmares rather than maiden 3 year olds but...
Happy to be wrong - as that way Caol Ila might get more sleep

I don't suppose there's any chance of a mule?
Just wishful thinking really!

From the photos posted I agree with you . Hopefully we can get some more and get a better idea. Foal watching through the forum is so much easier and less tiring ?

My, admittedly inexperienced, opinion was that it was not that imminent either.

I would guess at least a week to ten days.
So I’m going for a bay filly on 17th June.

How can you tell that from the photos?
I’d agree she doesn’t look that pregnant just from photos but perhaps like people her young muscles are holding it in tightly.
I’m happy to take the word of the two experience people that have seen her in the flesh and am checking back often ?

Yeah I agree personally it looks like to me that she still has a good 2 to 3 months just by looking at the photos. I could be completely wrong my current yard has broodmares and there look a lot bigger than what op horse looks like.Am I the only one who thinks it doesn't look imminent from the photos?

Both and vet and YO, who know their sh1t, think it's very, very soon. I'm happy to go with that
I have my camera and will set it up when we go to the yard. I'll take some pictures of the horse as well

Wowza things have escalated somewhat! I'm sorry it wasn't the outcome you hoped for CI and at an already tricky time, but I hope there will be some positives in among the stress of it! Will keep my fingers crossed all goes as smoothly as possible and will look forward to some foal pics soon

I wanted to guess grey! Oh well, I'll have to go for the unlikely (but does sometimes happen) 'surprise chestnut' from non-chestnut parents.
Best of luck for the foaling.

A ‘broodmare’ will always be bigger than a maiden, so there’s not really any comparison to be made between the two.

That‘s a thing you can’t assume anything from a maiden mare .

Thinks the luddites had a point...
I'm also going to be on a grey filly. Born in the next two days.

My vote is for a mini me. Same/similar color to Hermosa, and a filly. In the next 3 days.

Hope all goes well CI ?? and I hope you get a lovely dun filly, but most importantly a healthy one whatever Hermosa’s been cooking ?

I’m ridiculously excited there’s nothing like a beautiful new life. I’ve got my flask and my sleeping bag ready for foal watch ?.
My bet is on a bay filly 15th June ??.

I hope the camera will give you a bit more peace of mind. I am going for a bay colt with a white face and two white socks on thursday

I‘m betting on a grey filly, and she’ll be born about 5 minutes after you get the camera up .

Surely while they are distracted getting it set up...
