The Tessy bear BOGOF thread

[Honey08]

I think there's a big difference between wanting to breed a foal, and getting an unwanted present DD.. Although Tessybear has come round to the idea, and is excited, it wouldn't be fair to class a BOGOF as a breeding only thread.

I do too. This thread is more of a OMG type thread than a discussion on breeding - nobody knows the breeding that brought this on, nobody really cares, they just wanna see the Tessyfoal.

This thread is the highlight of my day as my poor boy is poorly and it is lovely to see all the support & excitement from HHO members. TessyB you are doing fantastic & kudos for you for keeping up with your studies as well as be a fantastic owner. I can't see todays pics though. I predict a piebald filly on thursday night

 

[Holly Hocks]

......still no foal.....come on Tessy, this is getting tiresome now.....just get on with it!

Ditto what ES said. Hope your boy gets well soon ES.

Tessy you are looking stunning as usual but come on missy, I guessed your little boy would be here by tomorrow morning so you need to tell Mini T to wake up

Can't believe she is hanging on! She must be so uncomfortable!
Fingers crossed for foalieee soon!

 

[Clannad48]

We could start the biggest loudest version of Why Are We Waiting - perhaps then Tessy will realise how we all want to see the foal

Amazing idea!

I hope she doesn't just do a massive poo one night and it turns out she was just a bit eggbound....

 

[Shysmum]

Why do people want to own cobs ?? HAHAHA, I love how everyone has fallen for Tess

 

[redmone]

I hope she doesn't just do a massive poo one night and it turns out she was just a bit eggbound....

So wish there was a "like" button!!!

What a brilliant thread! A very lovely mare too, such a kind eye.

I bet you can wait for baby to make an appearance. I'll go with it being a piebald filly. Black face with a blaze and nicely marked body, front legs white socks, back legs with white stockings. (Going over the hock)

Ah, wonder if Shilasdair is following this thread

I have had to revise my ETA (I think I had said last Friday) so will go for Wednesday, but I still say skewbald filly.

Hang on in there Tessy, but do get a move on. There are a lot of people waiting you know

 

[patchypony]

Okay I've resisted putting a guess in...so my guess is piebald filly, with tess's markings

 

[AmyMay]

Have to make a comment about feeding. This mare looks cracking. Whatever you're doing is clearly spot on. Dont be tempted to change anything until the foal is born. After that you can make feeding adjustments as you feel necessary, if she needs a higher calorie feed to ensurevenough milk. (Unless of course your vet has advised differently).

 

[CalllyH]

I think it will be this weekend

 

[RhaLoulou]

I know the suspense is terrible but after riding out in the freezing cold this evening I think Tessy is doing the right thing hanging on until it is warm enough for miniT!!!

 

[Marydoll]

Just checking in * pokes head round door * nothing yet then .
Check back tommorrow

 

[Asha]

im guessing, a strapping piebald colt, same markings as mum, born on Saturday night/Sunday am.


Cant wait to see, mm now let me think......... Teddy Bear

Im in Grantham for the next couple of days, maybe hes waiting for me

 

[ralph and maverick]

For my birthday on Saturday I would like to log in and see a pic of Mini T!!
Not asking too much is it?!

This

IMO you are more likely to cause problems if you start beggering about with feeds and things now - she looks great, shes clearly not struggling (!) and she knows what shes doing

and I now think it to be Tuesday - nobody has got Tuesday yet have they??

 

[Slightlyconfused]

I'm sticking with 'when weather warms up' is when foalie will arrive and she will have more black than right markings and be called Rissa!

 

[alwaysbroke]

This is the last thing I am looking at tonight and will be the first thing I check on in the morning, come on Tessybear so many want to see your baby

 

[Vindaloo]

I've been shamelessly lurking on this thread, EVERY DAY!! I just have to add my absolute best wishes for the lovely TB and of course OP.

What an absolutely fabulous, feel good thread. OP, you come across as a thoroughly lovely person and it is no surprise that you have had the overwhelming support of so many people. Has the arrival of a foal ever been looked forward to by quite so many people?

Here in India we too are looking forward to a TB foal (OH even asks).

[OldNag]

[Slightlyconfused]
