**Mares & Jennets To Watch List**

[Melanie]

Hello everyone~


**New list made once a month. Updates done ALL the time. So be sure to check the list often as I add new mares to watch periodically.. **



***Just a little reminder~

Almost all the cams have their on messageboards. Please check them often for updates or helpful information on their mares. I know some of these even have on their mb what to look for when the mare is close to foaling. Every mare can be so different and the signs will change on when foaling is close. So try to get your homework done and read their boards so you will be informed. Thanks!! ***
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
***TIP FOR NEWBIE'S: Have this alert monitor open on your screen, to hear any that have foal alerts activated. Not all cams have this but quite a few do. You can minimize it but at least it will pop up and sound when an alert goes off. www.foalcam.com/gateway.html
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BIG hugs to Heather and all involved for having Mare Stare up for us to view. You mean the world to us. THANKS!!!

Much THANKS to all who allow us in your barns to view these special events!!

Prayers being sent to all who are in need. We at Mare Stare are always there to offer support and prayers. Please remember all who have sick animals.

I will continue to research for new mares/jennets to add. Foaling season is getting cranked up. So I'm adding all the time. If you don't see a mare that you know is coming due, please pass the information over to me (if farm approves to be listed!) and I'll be sure to add her.

There are lots of cams active right now. I'm trying to add them as they get close or within a month out from due date. If I was to put all the mares in foal with cams active, the list would be HUGE.. LOL

Happy Marestare-ing!!!!

Thanks, Melanie! What a lot of fun ahead! As always, I'm so grateful for your work on this list. It's a terrific resource, and you do an amazing job of researching and assembling it for us.

I'm real excited to see Rick's mares coming up. Barbara at Silver Creek has several more after Minnie. Their due dates are on her Web site. I'll see if I can find the link and add it here.

Melanie,

We put Sophia under the barn cam last night: www.marestare.com/minidonk.htm
Her milk is still clear and her due date is not until May 9th but we have never foaled a baby from her before and we aren't familiar with her signs. Her bag starting getting firm so we put her up. This is her 3rd foal. We expect a red girl with a white face just like her sire and dam!

Thanks for all you do!

Dayle @ Half Ass Acres

Melanie!

Just wanted to let you know Franchesca at freelands was verfied not in foal. She was in foal at 60 days but probably lost her foal sometime afterward, because she never made a bag and her due date is past.

[Melanie]

Thanks Devotee. I think I have about 3 more on my list for Silver Creek. There may be more.

Thanks Dayle!! I added her on.

Thanks Angie C!! I took her off the list. Sure hated to hear she isn't in foal any more.

[luvhorses]

I never noticed the list until now.... thanks for posting this as it will make it easier to find the mares to put eyeballs on. I have been finding them the hard way. LOL
Luv

[Melanie]

Well.. Grace showed the foal. I guess some time today or last night. Anybody know the news about this foal??

Congrats!!!

Just incase you didn't find the post on their board Melanie, here is what happened(says on cam they are at the clinic, here is the explanation from owner)

Yesterday evening round midnight Grace gave birth to a gorgeous filly, it was a text book delivery and everything was very well...
After an hour she still wasn't able to stand and she looked weaker and weaker.. She couldn't nurse and stand or walk, this was really hard.. We started feeding her after milking Grace and tried to feed her as much as possible.. We noticed the food worked and that she was getting more energy, she was able to stand, but still not able to nurse..
We worked on her all night and this morning she walked round the stall and still tried to drink with Grace, but she just didn't manage that. We kept on going with the bottle to feed her and the vet came, during that time the filly looked pretty well, so we decided to work further on her at home.
This afternoon her condition was getting worse so I brought her to a special care unit of the university for new born foals..

That's were Grace and her filly are now.. She was a little dehydrated and they will start extra feeding by tube and they will keep on trying to stimulate her to drink from Grace. This afternoon she managed this a little, but she is not strong enough so she doesnt'get enough to eat...
Her condition is pretty bad and we'll have to wait and see one day at a time to see how she is doing.. It looks a little like she has the dummy foal syndrome, but for a "dummy foal" she is doing pretty good...

Please keep your fingers crossed on this little fighter...

Sonja

and another post she made afterward:

Haven't heard from the clinic during the night so guess no news is good news in this case.. Tomorrow I'll go to visit them but can't help it being very worried..

Yesterday before I left home to go to the clinic, when we were loading Grace and her filly, the filly was like she was in a coma and we almost couldn't wake her up... This was very scary to see...
One minute she is wide awake, the other minute she is as if she is dead except for the fact that she is breathing... Really strange and scary to see..

Let's just hope she'll improve in the coming days and that she'll do well....

I'll keep you posted on her....

Sonja

ARGH! I hate having missed that! Thanks for letting us know, Melanie.

[cookiesmom]

Need info:
I was reading about the Gypsy, I'm pretty sure she was, who has injuries/callouses on her legs. I can't remember her name, her stable or where I saw the info. Anybody else know which mare I'm talking about. Duh! ;-)

[devotee]
