Due Date

Thanks to everyone for your prayers and for keeping your fingers crossed for Peanut thus far (343 days today since she was bred!). The due date is tomorrow but as of today there are no impending signs of labour. The vet was out to the farm yesterday to check on some other mares at the same farm who were on a drug therapy to rush the heat cycles for breeding purposes. All four mares had been a bit slow to respond to the medication, possibly due to the extreme cold over the past week. As many of you already know, mares have the ability to prevent the onse of labour if they feel threatened, or that the foal's life could be at risk. Peanut, like the other mares at the farm, may be holding off for some warmer weather. Keep the prayers comin'! We'll keep you updated the best we can!
