She was definitely flirting, could this mean she is not pregnant? She supposedly was 6=7 months when we got her Dec. 22. Her bag has filled and she has gotten huge. The vet said just wait and see? She sure has been playing us for sweet feed if she's just gotten fat!!

They could possibly have a folical(spelling), but it isnt going to mean anything. Our old mare does that, when she is getting close to foal, she acts as though she is in heat, but she is pregnant. Nothing to worry about as long as the mare is still carryin the foal,and as far you know is still alive and healthy. We did sk our vet about this last year,a dn he had no worries. And she foaled a healthy perlino colt.
-------------------- Mares: Honey-buckskin(in-foal to a smutty buckskin stallion) BG-palomino/dunalino(foaled a beautiful filly) Dibby-dun(in-foal to a palomino stallion) Star Bucks-buttermilk buckskin(not bred, we may just use her as a riding horse)
Fillies: Lizzy-grulla(will be used as a broodmare in the future, due to an injury as a weanling...we are unsure if she will be riding sound, although she might be, as her injury has healed so well...you can't even tell) Sheba-black(hopefully will be shown in Halter classes starting this year) Blue-blue roan(we aren't too sure what we are going to do with this filly yet....but she is a cutie)
Geldings: Poco-sorrel/overo*Paint*(Awesome riding horse!) Brandy-*FOR SALE*(Nice 2 yr old, going into training soon, price will go up, feel free to ask me about him..if you are interested)
Foals: Tinker Bell- Red dun filly. Nice short neck, long legs, beautiful eyes..absolutely beautiful. Very people friendly.
Other 2 foals are expecting between May and June.

All horse can get happy with each other. WAs she turning her back to them and urinating?? Winking her vulva?? If not she was probably just playing around.

Thanks so much, thought for a minute we were crazy, She ran to their fence stood sideways, they rubbed heads with her and sniffed her bag and her rear end, and of course made those hysterical horse teeth faces. Guess we'll wait on her like the vet said and quit being so anxious>
