My mare dripped milk for 18 days and had been waxed. She gave birth to a colt May 4th and everything seemed ok. May 5th the colt was up drinking milk as i watched on my video monitor in the house. At 630 am i went in to feed the horses and found colt down with mucous coming out his right nostril and...

Ok this is getting to be quite a long little trip here. Im home at the farm. Mare waxed up Monday am and started dripping milk. Now its thursday and she has consistently dripped and waxed every day since monday. I have the video monitor on and sleeping on the couch. She is driving me and my friend( ...

Whew i made it to day 300! actually working on day 303 now lol. Had a friend whos a real experienced horse person out who probably has attended over 100 mares in foal. She said.. its ok she still has more room to go and no wax yet even though her bag looks pretty big. forgot to mention mare has old ...

My mare is day 294 and bagged up pretty good. Last year she apparently went early and foal only survived 28 days. I hear that once a mare delivers past day 300 that is isnt considered premie. Im crossing my fingers this little guy stays put for at least 26 days. Vets say just to hang tough as they t...

oops forgot to mention.. now im living at my parents and commuting 2 times a day to feed and care for the horses. I bought a wireless video monitor a few months ago so i could keep an eye on the mare from the house. Now im living 10 km away and its doesnt transmit that far. LOL. But hubby has agreed...

Thanks Diane, i will consult my "good horse repro vet" asap. I lost a foal last year. April 1st ( mares name was snow joke) sick joke! anyway she was 10 days early and aborted with no signs of a problem and no bagging up. Its so heartwrenching to get so close and take a loss to our horse families. I...

I have a 7 yr old tb here. She was covered June 6th and is due approx May 14th. Being 7 weeks away give or take the usual. This is her second foal. She gave birth early last year and the foal died. She ran thru a gate injurying her side and went into labour last year. Problem. She is 6-7 weeks from ...

well i have some new outlooks due to recent experiences. The old Qh i own Mickey who is 31 has passed. Unfortuneatly not a peaceful experience. Poor Mickey slipped on a slope in the woods sliding down and getting cast amonst 3 trees. We cut one away and were able to bring him lower on the slope. Unf...

I live in a very small village. Our scenic and rather huge lake here attracts lots of visitors in the summer months. We have people walking the 3 km block from the trailer park past my and my neighbours farm. Part of the reason i posted the part about the neighbours walking by comes down to what hap...

I am leary of vaccinating my mares with WNV. Last year my mare aborted 10 days early as did my friends mare bred the same time. Both mares were vaccinated first trimester with the vaccine ( unsure of which one) We had also heard of 4 other ppl with the same dilemma. I know ill probably get shot down...

I can relate to the elderly horse issue. I too have a Ancient horse here. He was my first horse and ive had him since i was 14 and im now 34. Mickey is now 31 and really showing his age. I am disgraced at how he looks BUt if i had to have a OSPCA member or someone come out on a complaint i have noth...

Here is the story i got off the OSPCA site MEDIA RELEASE 33 horses abandoned at Bramalea farm, one found dead Newmarket, Ont. (31 January, 2005) – The Ontario SPCA is investigating the abandonment and neglect of 33 thoroughbred horses at a Bramalea-area farm. The investigation began on January...

Does anyone know of any information about the 30 tbs found at a tb farm abandoned without food?water. I Saw a article in a paper or magazine recently with this story. Did i have a bad dream or did i actually read this?????

Thank you sulfurfire!! Being a nurse i get it now. It is similar to placenta previa in humans. I have seen this term red bad a few times in horses and no one was willing to explain it to me. It definetly wasnt what i thought it was and that didnt seem to have anything to do with my mares last birth ...
