I missed them all to!

Someone on my other board posted this earlier:

The foal at Astoria http://www.marestare.com/fcam.php?alias=astoria keeps heading for the milk bar, overshooting & reaching too far under the mare, so it walks under the mare out the other side, circles round and comes back for another go at it...

And does the exact same thing again! Cute, Cute, Cute!

Ha-ha!!!!

 I didn't see this either. I think issuing the low alert was actually the owners notifying us of a birth. I think it was 'unattended' and noticed by someone on the Marestare thread shortly after the birth who probably called the owners---or the owners noticed the foaling starting or complete on the cam.

I think they are called by some 'jammies' (as in pajamas)

Here is one type:

Man, have we had the foaling action today without the Barn Alarm alerts!  Are the owners and marestares like us just missing the labors as they are starting to happpen so fast from start to foaling, too many false alarms, fatigue? I want HOOVES. I want WHINNYING on the barn alarm. I want...I want...well, I'm just a little 2 year old aren't I!?   ;D

Kay says:

Tease is really really soft in the hind end now and her flanks are really lose so the foal has to be dropping. I couldnt check her udder tonight though she was having none of that and Russ isnt here to help.

I still think we have a few days to go

When I turned up the Barn Alarm Monitor just now I noticed that there is an  alert is on here---not sure how long that has been up---or if it continues active?:

A low alert definitely contunues here:

I guess Tease's behavior has been considered a bit unusual by some of us watching her this a.m.---including Kay.  She lay down for about twenty minutes I hear...basically with her legs straight out and a few rolls onto her tummy (possible labor/foaling positions plus actions). But now she's just her usual self, calm for now---and eating!!!  Kay does say that Tease is the widest/roundest pregant mare they have ever had and that she is hoping some of this is water weight for Tease.  Poor baby!!! :(
