Here's the "tongue" thing. It sure is weird. It looks and feels just like a piece of liver or rubber. Not sure what it's function is, but I think somebody said it was in the foal's mouth. Yuck! ...
I buried them both down in the woods, out of the pasture. I didn't want them to draw scavengers. There's not many around here, but we do have the occasional coyote and stray dog.
Cool! When you are spreading the placenta out does it tear easy or is it pretty strong?
The white thing looks like the membranes. You sure it's a placenta? In people it looks muscle or like beef steak.
HI, The tongue thing is weird isnt it. I thought it looked like another tongue!
We threw ours on the shed roof as someone said it was a good luck thing! LOL
Thunder came out steaming in a complete bag like the one you spread out He had to poke a hole to get his nose out! Sugar lost the afterbirth about 2 hours later.
Very exciting isnt it!~
Sharn
The placenta looks like it may be in the middle of the right hand side of the picture. It is like raw steak, very thick. Check it is whole!
