Foal Watch

Postby Laurierace » Mon Feb 18, 2008 12:22 pm

I am pretty sure my mare is very close to foaling, but am not going to say that because everytime I say she is close, she adds another day on! If you would like to watch along with me, here is her foal cam.

I love your foal cam!! I just wish it was streaming instead of updating every few seconds.... But MUCH better than nothing at all!!! I saw a woman come in (maybe you???) w/ a purple shirt and pick up a pile of poo and then give her a flake of hay and then a couple minutes later a guy w/ a reddish shirt w/ a circular logo on the back came in and checked her backside and then underneath presumably checking to see if she was bagged up.... I want to see some foal action!!!! What are the details of your mare??? I'm rooting for her....!!!

Its easiest to follow along with her progress on the thread below or on the message board of my website which is in my signature. The cam is streaming, I can only get dial up in the barn though so that is as streaming as it gets. It been better than nothing so far.

Well, I just logged onto the cam and saw the lights go out at 8:45.... Maybe tonight's the night, I saw her looking back at her sides a couple of times.... I have my fingers crossed for you!! Good Luck!
