Vets coming out :(

[3Beasties]

How exciting!!

Piebald cob type colt, with more black then white

 

[mynutmeg]

Feed wise I get her onto a stud balancer - given how late in the pregnancy she is (going from udders and butt) she'll need the extra protein over what you would get in a vit & min supplement but being cob type she won't need the starch and calories in a stud mix (one I looked at had 29% starch ) Just introduce it slowly as I believe they can be more prone to colics in late pregnancy.
Once foal is here, if we ever get any grass, then being native she is unlikely to need a mix type of feed and will be able to continue on a balancer. My cob is in foal and my plan if she needs extra calories for feeding the foal once it's here is to add in micronised linseed to the balancer rather than a stud mix because of the starch content. Make sure she has ad-lib hay/haylage from now on as well.

Definately get the books and get reading (you'll be able to skip 1/4 - 1/2 at the start of the books as they go on about picking stallion and getting mare in foal etc)

Good luck

[Tnavas]

Will be eagerly awaiting the email notification from HH

Advertise foal for sale at weaning once around three weeks old - take a good photo at 3 weeks they are supposed to look very much like their adult self at that point.

 

[Wagtail]

I would say from those photographs that she is definitely in foal, but I think she has a few weeks to go yet.

Good luck!
