Foal Patrol 2022

Foaling makes her hungry. :hugs:

I donā€™t think that mare ever stops eating lol

Wonder if itā€™s a filly or colt

Ah got the text itā€™s a colt!

Hope his a corker. Sheā€™s more interested in the hay than she is in him.

Anyone know if he has stood up/nursed yet or no?

No.

Thatā€™s the way to perk him up, toss some hay on him while youā€™re eating!

Get up buddy!

Get by with a little help from my friendsā€¦

This is concerning.

Mom seems agitated every time he lifts him? Is that normal behavior? (Iā€™ve never seen that)

Poor little guy went straight into the wall

Heā€™s up!

Not for long. Wish he had a better sense of direction.

When should I start to worry that he hasnā€™t nursed yet?
ETA: Thanks for introducing me to Foal Patrol!!

Hasnā€™t it been about 3 hours since the birth?

Two. He was born at 9:20

YES!!! We have contact.!

Trotting around his mum now. She is directing him to nurse. ā€œSon, Iā€™m bursting here donā€™t you know?ā€ I wonder how his delivery went, since we were unable to see it.

Yay! Heā€™s pooping. (Why are horse people always so concerned about poop). :grin:

Because we all know that itā€™s a big deal in many circumstances. :grin:
