*New* The FreeRepublic Saddle Club - Who's Who *pics*
Free Republic has a lot of horse people that have found each other on other threads . And since we all like to talk horses, how about a thread where it is not off-topic, but is THE topic?
This is a horse chat thread where we share ideas, ask for input from other horsemen, and talk about our riding and horse-keeping. We have a lot of different kinds of riders and horses, and a lot to share. In the previous threads we have had a great time talking through lessons, training, horse lamenesses, illnesses and pregnancies... and always sharing pictures and stories.
I always have a link to this thread on my profile page, so if you have something to say and can't find the thread in latest posts look for it there and wake the thread up!
I also have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and Becky pings everyone most mornings. Let Becky (Paynoattentionmanbehindthecurtain) and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list. As FreeRepublic is a political site, our politics and other issues will probably blend in . There are many issues for horsemen that touch politics land use, animal rights/abuse cases that make the news . Legislation that might affect horse owners.
So... like the previous threads, this is intended as fun place to come and share stories, pictures, questions and chit-chat, unguided and unmoderated and that we come together here as friends. There are lots of ways of doing things and we all have our quirks, tricks and specialties that are neat to learn about.

New folk and occasional posters, jump right in and introduce yourselves, tell us about your horses, and post pictures if you've got them!
Hope yours makes it the 23rd Feb! A very good day! : ) We can share birthday cake! LOL
Is that the way she has been eating for awhile, or just tonight?
Becky
End of March, first of April, then Belle and three of mine due in May. Well one of the May ones is iffy. Vet said she wasn't pregnant but she sure looks like it.
:) Well, it's possible.
She has been "off" Her hay for a while now, and sometimes slow to eat her grain. She hasnt touched her hay at all tonight. Normally by now, she will be picking at it. Maybe she has just run out of room : )
When in April is Belle due?
sorry I meant May!
Belle is due May 8-12. I didn't think anyone had one coming in April.
Becky
Have to shut down here now, and have a stop to make on the way home. Keeping my fingers crossed and I'll be back on as soon as possible.
Wow, you're excpecting a herd:)
Do you sell them?
Becky
That's very possible that she's just run out of room. I read that can happen.
Becky
All the ones I have seen do. But Belle did stand up with Dot halfway out:), it was kind of scary. But then she laid back down and finished.
Becky
I bet that was scary!
I have to go and get MIL and FIL ready for bed, so inbetween looking out the window, i will be busy for 30 mins. I will be back on here soon.

I've been to the Equine Affaire in Springfield Ma loads of times. I absolutely love it. Haven't been able to go for a couple of years though. Do you know if it's already come to Ma?
No worries! Everyone has to learn, and what better place where you can voice your concerns? Certainly no one thinks the worse of you for it. :-) We just want everything to turn out ok!
Ran across this great page of 'in the act' foaling pics....
Put me down for a tenative April 15th 2007:')
I've got one due in April. My mare Truly. And Bluebell's due in May. So we've got this to look forward to every month for a while.
I'm shooting for 11:45, just a few minutes before I get home.
