Rocklone 2016 - Charm

[Rocklone]

She's happy as a clam she didn't like him much anyway haha! Goldie was the only one who liked him but  overall they don't appear to have noticed much.

Heres charm, on either 157 or 141 days. Shes dropped weight again, but i dont see much belly. Third photo is her exactly one year ago, but obviously a lot more condition on her lol shes been started on a conditioning feed now.

I think she looks great.

She is quite alot bigger than goldie ?

[Rocklone]

Nope only 2" but goldie is wider than she is taller, so most look bigger than her hahaha!

[Rocklone]

Ok so I've just had a word with the ptest seller and they believe the test is not so accurate when the mare has a foal at foot. So we could really be looking at an empty mare here.

Well, we'll just have to wait and see....and hope!!

[Ryan]

Well I hope thats not the case Hayley , fingers crossed that she is pregnant

[Rocklone]

I'm nearly sure I get Movement last night. But I dunno. She would be approx 5 months

Did they say why it wouldn't be as accurate with a foal a foot? My understanding was that the mares urine has increased estrone sulfate levels, so the presence of estrone sulfate stops the test from turning clear. If that's the case would you get false positive or false negatives?

[Rocklone]

A false positive. She was early in the pregnancy but the test went very dark very fast which means mid to late term so it could have been the foal
Hormones. I don't know how long they have to be weaned for the hormones to go aaay.

[Holly]

Thank you, that's good to know!

[Rocklone]
