Wednesday Evening Update

We are finally starting to see some changes in the mares.  Pollyanne and Karisma are both now testing four squares (out of a possible 5) on their calcium test.  Both still have high pH test.  Polly's rump muscles have really softened up today.  I expect that we will see some very big changes in both of them soon. 

Jordan is still hanging on with a calcium test at the max.  Her pH has not dropped further so we are hopeful she will just not change for a few days.  She is now at 312 days so every day she continues to carry her baby helps.

The vet and farrier came together yesterday to work on Rosa's hoof.  They got more drainage and fitted her with a hospital shoe.  She is still not putting weight on it today and the vet will be back tomorrow to check her again.  I keep watching her and hoping to see her putting some weight on that foot but it hasn't happened yet.  Hopefully soon.

It was a really nice day here and we had a grooming day with the horses. We braided tails on Polly, Kari and Jordan.  They all looked so nice when we finished but they will probably be messy again by tomorrow night. 

Have a good night.  I'll keep you updated on any changes with the mares.
