Nope...no baby yet!! Lezas' milk is still yellowish, but now getting more opaque. I am hoping by this weekend, but she could do this for awhile! Last foal she shaped up within 24 hours and went quickly.

Leza is still holding out - making steady changes daily. Her milk is thicker but still yellowish. Her hindend is very loose and looking "dimply"...I am hoping soon!
Chilli actually has skim milk and testing the same ph level as Leza. She is due April 28, but always goes 2-3 weeks early - so she needs to hold out until late next week, which I think she will. Her udder is not really full and she will stream milk for about six hours before she foals.
Poor Tasa does not know what to do with herself. She is a maiden mare and due the 18th. She is really changing her patterns and was pretty uncomfortable tonight.
Who will be first?!?!

The race is on... I would guess Leza, Chilli then Tasa... I think Leza will have hers on Wednesday, Chilli next friday and Tasa three days after her due date. And just because I said something those will be the days you dont have any foals, lol.

Tiffany..you are so generous! If you want to start a thread on a contest - be my guest!
Leza came in with a full udder - usually it goes down during the day. Milk is white!!! Opaque but not totally as thick as I know they can get. Her vulva is dark pink too, so the blood is filling in. Could be tonight - could be a couple more days. I am hoping tonight or tuesday night, as we have a norhtern blowing in tomorrow night and it will get down in the sticken' 40's again.
Both foals Leza has had here has where born between 4am and 6am - so it could be a long few days. Her first foal here, she would walk in a small circle, buckle her knees but not go down, then go stand in the corner only to do it all again. For FOUR hours. Silly mares!

Lezas' milk changed more from 6pm to 8:30. She even had wax in between. Right now she is laying down resting...
Gonna be a long night but hopefully fruitful!

Long night, no baby yet. She had times of being super busy and then flat out sleeping. This morning it looks like that foal could just roll out back there! Storms moving in today with high winds and temp dropping tonight. Hate to say it, but hope she waits one more night - but I don't know how she could at this point!

Sunday Stormy's vulva went crimson, now it is still red just not as dark, is that normal?
