Well its taken FOH about 6 weeks to get this one!lol! No,Morse,I am seriously hoping not to have 4 foalies!!aaarrrgh!!! Apparently FOH tells me that its a girl liz! Yes,I think you are right furiey,I shall have to bring the other 2 in aswell,I rather doubt they would be kind enough to give me a sign that foaling was imminent! so I shall at least have to test them. Bit awkward as all our stables are full! I think I shall have to put them in the barn.

I've just read though this thread and I'm laughing hard..... what are we all like ehhh.... I suppose foals were always on the cards, but now its all coming out, we're all in a bit of a panic or excited panic, I'm not sure... anyway I dont think Tila is preggers although she has one heck of a belly on her and I'm now thinking a little test would be a good idea!! by the sound of it everyones gonna have there hands full... well I cant wait to hear more on Bonita, Sarah I know your not a camera person but maybe you could get a pic and we could all have a nosey at her belly... sometime... xx

must admit didnt think they were reeeally in foal..quite shocked when the test came said pos- but it could still be wrong maybe..had given up waiting on bonita , had been lurking round roxanne with no luck either, so couldnt belive it when I saw bonita having a wee. ran down the field (not easy in muckboots when its slippy) then back again with my dogs bowl, forgot the teaspoon and scooped up what I could and the rest with cotton wool.bonita must have thought Id lost the plot!proudly came back with the bowl and took it home and put it under the kitchen table- hubby had a fit when he found out what it was!said that that was the limit- so I was ousted outside to the shed. so have orderd 2 more wee foalie kits for roxanne and ellie. also found out from the same people that they will be having a faeces test available in a couple of months time. hmm much easier I think than the urine one. just got a feeling that if bonita is havin a foal it would be a girl. Its just very very frustrating that we cant found out when it is due?? Ill take my camera down tomorrow and see if I can get a pic of her somehow.

Oh, your poor dogs! I hope you've washed their bowl out! But I can relate to it. I was giving the girls their breakfasts and was standing with a quite unhorsey friend, just watching them. Zorelle had finished her measley handful and was, as usual, standing drooling as Betty was ploughing into her overflowing bucket (it's very sad to watch), when she lifted her tail and obliged with a lovely wee. "Oooh, 'scuse me!" I exclaimed, and dashed to the feed room where I knew I had a spare poo sample pot. Poor Olga was stood wondering if I'd completely flipped, a guess that was confirmed when I rushed into the stable, shoved the girls aside and gathered up a pot full of wee. The things we do, eh?
How long did it take to get your result, FOH? I think poor debutante's fingernails are suffering, big time.

I did mine when I got home- you have 4 hours to do it or you can store it inthe fridge for some many days.. didnt think hubby would go for that one on the shelf next to his trifle. the result was instant, it takes 5 - 10 mins to show the result but it showd pos from the start. i kept looking thinking it w as going to change but it didnt- even got hubby to check!

Rats! We've missed a trick there. We'd only just started wondering if this was something other that just porky belly syndrome so I didn't have a kit and took our little steaming sample to the vets. Maybe we'll hear tomorrow... Shall we take bets? What do you all think - fat or foal?
