In last 48 hours she has developed loads of little white fleck/dots all over teats. Teats don't appear to have filled at all. I don't think she is in foal as she has no belly what so ever if anything she is slightly underweight and I have been trying to feed her up. She has previously had a foal who is now rising 2 and lives in same herd as her. She did run with a donkey colt last spring so potentially she could be but I would expect her to have a huge belly by now as would be approx. 10 months gone! Donkeys go 13 months so she could go to 12/13 months. She did has some unusual movement in her side last but was right up just in front of her hip, would it be possible for her to be carrying that high? What could white flecks be if she is not? She is only getting hour max grazing a day as field still too wet and diet not really changed since December so I wouldn't say it was spring grass related.

Don't cause any problems as far as I know tho.
