Anyone still up? I think Tara is having her foal

She keeps getting up and down and circling and looking at her belly.
Not that I'm an expert but she doesn't look very happy.

Aww, It's adorable. She's given it a good lick and it's trying to get up on it's feet, but I really must go to bed!

I just commented on the other thread this morning to say she has had the foal, didnt realise you had posted it after seeing it late last night.

Did you watch?

Yes I did. Couldn't see everything because it was quite dark but the man came in and shone a torch just as the foal shot out. He didn't have to do anything so he went straight back out and left her to it. Luckily the foal sort of tottered into the light after a bit so we could get a look!

Ahh brilliant. Grin

Animals put us to shame dont they.

Thats not a dig at anyone's birth experience by the way. My baby went over due, then turned the wrong way in the birth canal, got his head stuck on my pelvic spines then needed removing by C-section. Then I only fed him for three days because I was so ill and exhausted after the emcs.

Animals really do just get on with it dont they. Smile
