I had a wonderful but frightning weekend and Monday! My Horse Queenie started showing signs that see would foal so Saturday night I watched her until 3am then Jeff took over for awhile, while I snatched some sleep. Same thing on Sunday so by Monday morning I was very tired and decided to lay down in my office to watch her camera. So I layed down and looked up every ten minutes or so...sleep overcame. Nine Am I awoke to my Phone ringing off the hook to, "Your Mare is foaling!". Damn did I surley fall asleep! I had on her website if they observed her foaliing and Noone was there please call ASAP. Someone did and saved Queenie's and the babies life! She could not get the foal out on her own and Jeff and I ended up having to pull with all our possible strength. One last push and we Pull with all our might, IT FINALLY SLID OUT... I read everything possible on foaling and Noone said it wouldn't come out! God I was shaking and scared I'd lose both of them. I am sure glad that is over.
