It's foaling season and if you have foals coming you need to know what this is and how serious this is.
This is called a red bag. A person we know sent us this after her foal was born severely brain damaged from lack of oxygen and she lost him. She didn't know she had fescue in her hay.
Pregnant mares should not be eating fescue in the last several months of their pregnancy. It is a contributing factor for a red bag situation.
A red bag is the placenta being delivered first. Once this starts the foal is getting no oxygen. Should you Ever see any little bit of red coming get someone to call your vet immediately and send someone to get a really sharp knife, well cleaned knife.
You are probably going to get told to cut through it as quick as you can. It has 7 layers and this is very difficult to do.
If you are going to have foals please do not assume all will go well. It often doesn't. Read, Read, Read everything about foaling.
We recommend Complete Foaling Manual by Theresa Jones

"Meeting Alana has truly changed my life living with chronic pain. Shortly after I bought my horse, I was diagnosed with Osteo arthritis and had a hip replacement. The time waiting for the replacement and being so much pain, I compensated with every muscle. One year after my surgery I was able to start to ride very cautiously, and with a lot of tension. My instructor (who knew Alana) was watching me trying to get in the saddle and quickly said I should see Alana. My range of motion was very limited and he was concerned for my safety. I had tried physical therapy, chiropractor, and massage, and nothing made a difference until I saw her. I went to her classes and one-on-one appointments. Her approach is gentle, compassionate, thorough and explains how the brain needs help to get out of its deeply engrained patterns. She taught me how to focus on the sensation of where my tension is, the feeling of contracting the muscles and then total relaxation. The small and subtle actions never hurt but have incredible results. I am now able to get on my horse from the ground which is amazing!! Being able to ride with my body relaxed, and in rhythm with him has also made him happy, relaxed and so responsive to my requests. Thank you Alana for your all that you do🌞🐴 #missionacres #Alberta #Equestrian #Wellness #hipmobility #shouldermobility #pandiculation #movebetterfeelbetter #movewithoutpain #somaticmovement #retrainyourbrain #painrelief #wellness #nopainallgain #gentlemovement #mindfulmovement #neuromuscularreeducation #yychealth #breathwork #meditation #feelbetter #balance #stability #selfcare #reducepainnaturally #movementmedicine #awarenessthroughmovement #clinicalsomaticeducator #functionalmovement
