are you sure she isnt eating and they are tryign to save foal elsewhere?

Disasterpiece · 13/07/2011 00:15

her edd was 15th july. Horses are ok to go over for 4ish weeks.

Disasterpiece · 13/07/2011 00:16

She could be eating I suppose but they wont still be trying to save the foal.

thisisyesterday · 13/07/2011 00:16

she doesn't normally eat for this long. am pretty sure they had the foal down there

AmyStake · 13/07/2011 00:17

I wish they would just put something on Twitter, anything.

piprabbit · 13/07/2011 00:18

I'm wondering why they don't tweet if they know the foal definitely didn't make it.

Bohica · 13/07/2011 00:18

I really hope I'm wrong but I think it is to late for the foul now Sad

Poor Queenie.

Do you think I can claim tirednece due to labour of a friend as an excuse for me being up so late in tomorrows meeting?

Disasterpiece · 13/07/2011 00:18

Did I just see something move in the bottom right corner?

slartybartfast · 13/07/2011 00:18

is it off air?

thisisyesterday · 13/07/2011 00:18

yes, me too.

thisisyesterday · 13/07/2011 00:19

sorry that we "me too" to wishing they'd put something on twitter

i am hoping that as they haven't said it's dead that it's maybe alive but very weak and they're not sure what willhappen?

piprabbit · 13/07/2011 00:19

Not off air for me.

HadAThreesomeWithFredAndGeorge · 13/07/2011 00:19

I think they defiantly left the foal. They walked away separately and it would have taken them both to carry it.

Disasterpiece · 13/07/2011 00:20

Is that a pool of blood to her right?

piprabbit · 13/07/2011 00:21

Don't think it's blood just bare floor

HadAThreesomeWithFredAndGeorge · 13/07/2011 00:21

probably the placenta disaster

thisisyesterday · 13/07/2011 00:22

she looks upset now
:(

Disasterpiece · 13/07/2011 00:22

That what I thought at first bt it seems to be getting bigger.

They need to move that horse behind her.

Disasterpiece · 13/07/2011 00:24

Ahh yes could be the placenta.

AmyStake · 13/07/2011 00:25

What a sad night. Poor Queenie. :(

Disasterpiece · 13/07/2011 00:26

I need to go to bed. Laptop will be coming with me though.

thisisyesterday · 13/07/2011 00:28

i ought to go to bed too. keep refreshing twitter, but nothing.

well... see you all back here tomorrow to find out what happened maybe?

thisisyesterday · 13/07/2011 00:31

you can see a bit of the foal i think.
not moving at all

Disasterpiece · 13/07/2011 00:31

When she just stood up straight I think you could see a bit of the foals torso? Could be wrong though.

thisisyesterday · 13/07/2011 00:33

on twitter :(
