didn't want to hijack the bagging up thread. just out of interest as there were quite a few on there that were a few weeks overdue with no sign of a bag. how long is it ok for a mare to go overdue for, before we need to consider veterinary inspection?

I've had one go well over 3 weeks with no problems, she foaled & cleansed all by herself.

I have 3 mares all over due. One is on day 356 and only just started to bag up. I have had mares go just over 12 months.

Mine went just over a year with no bag and no signs at all, didn't even look in foal but out popped a healthy baby and they were both fine

We are now 354 days massive but no signs. I did have one that went over a year once.
I'm putting it down to the weather I'd rather it be warm haha

thanks for replies, very interesting! I did have the figure of about 4 weeks in my mind, but was concerned we look to be heading over that! on the plus side, it may have warmed up by the time I need to sit up  |
