maybe you should try getting them drunk on lavender. hold lavender up to their noses. give them a massage. but the best thing to do... put another horse in a stall across the aisle from them. Like Runa or Brunka or something. Just pretend like you are fascinated with that other horse and cant take your eyes off them. That might work. I always wanted to see foal birth so bad! AT the boarding barn I saw a mare so pregnant she was gonna pop acting funny. She was actually making a groaning noise, circling, laying down with her tail cocked, she would actually tremor in the rear end. I pulled up a lawn chair and got out some horse magazines and sat there all day determined to watch her give birth. Then some people arrived for the afternoon feeding and just started having fits going OH MY GOSH A BABY and I looked and thru all that a mare behind me no one even knew was pregnant had a foal . Nothing will convince me that mare wasnt diverting my attention all day so the other one could deliver! Janice Janice -- even good horses have bad days sometimes.
