As I have just set up this blog account, I am testing the space to learn how it works etc.

Eventually I will customise the look of this blog page, but you will have to be patient.I intend to use this blog space for the foreseeable future to inform children and vet. students of the weekly development of my Dartmoor mare who is in foal.

Her name is Ruth, and she is due to foal on the 5th of April 2007. By showing photographs of body parts which are relevant for monitoring her development and text to explain what I can see, I hope that the information I provide will be of interest to anyone studying reproduction.
