Thanks so much for your advice, I will keep checking on her.

Dang it, that means I have to go out in the dark, LOL!

There is no such thing as a due date in the equine. Normal is 320 to 370 days with 340 being an average of averages. Unlike other species, gestational length in the equine is determined by the fetus. Foals born earlier than 320 days should be watched closely for problems.

You mean no baby yet today... LOL I would say that she is close. She will foal when you stop watching.

Yeah, you are probably right!

There was no wax today, does that mean she was just teasing and has decided to hold it in longer?

Haas, do you think the foal will be a palomino also?

Well that is not very exciting

Is her milk sticky like honey? What color is it? Palomino is the only possible foal color if the parent colors are correct. If the sire is tested or by parentage can only be cremello then the only color of the offspring when bred to sorrel is palomino. If the sire could be perlino or smoky cream instead then you can ad buckskin or smoky black without knowing more details such as the agouti on both.
