Fayzona foal watch update 4/5/09 336 days

Zoe has a good size bag now and has had for about 3 days. This has not been her normal pattern in the past. My thoughts are we have a bit more time before we will see a foal BUT it was with that line of thinking that I missed her foaling in 2005. She took me by complete surprise. I was sure I had about a week before she would go with both her 2005 and 2007 foals. She had a very small udder and showed no normal signs of discomfort. In 2007 with her last foal she just laid down then got up circled and laid back down and there were feet. I was watching her like a hawk so I wouldn't miss the big event. Sure makes me glad my other mares are so obvious about there impending foalings.
Maybe we will have an Easter surprise.

Zoe after a few good rolls today. Dust and all.
