It is getting close to that time, OK maybe not to close but I am getting excited, just 1 month and 15 days until Fantasy's due date for her mule foal. She is looking good this year and feeling pretty good. She is always a grumpy pregnant lady but she seems to be handling this pregnancy in stride.  I got my fingers crossed for a dun molly. I hope to get my wish come March 31st.

Just 1month and 9days left until her due date :)
I went out and got  some pictures  of her today. She has yet to start and bag up,  I suspect alot of changes should happen starting next month if not then she will mosty likely carry into April.

Fantasy was bred to the Fourniers Jack Boomer, it is not the best picture of this sweet Mammoth Jack but you get an idea of his coloring. Not to mention his big beautiful ears :D

Hi Tiffany:

You must be climbing the walls with only 33 days left to the arrival of your newest herd member. I guess all that redecorating you are doing will help you to keep your mind off of it. LOL!!! I remember when Kizzy was due, I was a total basket case. I can't wait to see the foal. I can just imagine those long ears, it will be SO adorable!!! I can't wait to see the pictures!!!!!

Fantasy got her first bath as the sun was  shining and it finally got a bit warm. She is shedding like crazy a good sign but still her udder has yet to show any signs of change. I am VERY excited,  I must keep  myself occupied lest  I will go nutz with anticipation...LOL. Fantasy is already annoyed with all the poking and prodding of her belly to feel the mules movement. She does however greatly appreciate grooming sessions to remove her ever shedding coat. It is evident just at a glance  at my pasture every place she has rolled or slept by the piles of white hair...LOL.

Another update: Oh my gal is getting big, I got some new pictures today to show of her belly :D We started rearranging panels in the barn as well, so it will be ready when she is to start spending
her nights in there.

you can really see her sticking out on both sides with a hind view....

and WOOHOO ;D finally some change in her udder, means we are on the right track

Still I think she will wait until the end of the month or first week of April. I won't bring her in for the night until she starts to wax up or drip milk. Last time she dripped milk for 2 weeks before she gave birth. But her dam Salsa taught me each foal is individual so don't think each birth will be exactly the same as the last.

Just a quick calendar check and I see it is officially 21 days to your long eared bundle of joy's arrival. You must be going bonkers, I know I was when Kizzy was due. Hang in there, it will be no time before you have those long ears flopping around your pasture.

UPDATE:
Fantasy is coming along great she just keeps getting all around bigger. Her disposition towards me has taken a turn from grumpy mare to absolute love. She follows me around and does not seem to mind all the fussing I do at grooming time everyday. I took pictures before grooming time so you can see the suttle signs on her white coat as to what she has been up too. She is dirty, she has been rolling, you can see where she has been biting at her sides. The rubber band has moved down on her tail braid for she has been doing alot of tail swishing, from warning other horses they are to close to her. I brush her everyday and rebraid her tail, as I am trying to keep it clean.
She has moved into her foaling stall every night now and waits every evening by the gate to go in. I started putting her in when I noticed she was distancing herself from the herd more.
new pics'...

We got wax forming ;D every morning when I go out to release Fantasy into the big pasture there is a ball of wax on one nipple these past 2 days. So things are moving along She seems more flat sided to me so I believe she has dropped. I plan on getting more pictures later today...I would have taken pics this morning but darn if I grabbed the camera and the battery was dead. So I am charging it right now.

New pictures now that my batteris are charged.  I just walked out to the pasture and found my gal relaxing and snapped some pictures....


and here is that wax on her full udder

I thought I would include this lovely photo of her attitude as of late, as well. You can't see but Princess is on the other side of Fantasy  coming this way to see what  I am up to and when she got to close Fantasy objected. I had to chase Fantasy away right after I clicked the picture as that behavior is not allowed regardless, when  I am in the pasture.
