Maiden Mare question about Edema and Croupe Equine-Reproduction.com Bulletin Board » General Mare Questions - Volume 2 » Maiden Mare question about Edema and Croupe « Previous Next » Author Message   Vanessa Pierce Neonate Username: Starr Post Number: 4 Registered: 02-2009 Posted on Tuesday, March 17, 2009 - 10:43 pm:        Hello all, Just a quick question. My mair is 310 days today. I noticed this morning that her croupe muscle(is that right) Has sunken in a little bit. This evening I was checking on her everything is the same since she came home. Nothing is different except the fact of her croupe and this evening I was rubbing on her, checking size of milk bag, and I noticed she has a little bit of edema swelling going on,on her belly. Are both of these things normal at 310 days? Any help would be great Thanks   Jan Owen Senior Stallion or Mare Username: 1frosty1 Post Number: 2224 Registered: 04-2006 Posted on Tuesday, March 17, 2009 - 10:47 pm:        Hi Vanessa...sounds normal to me! The edema swelling is common....make sure your mare is getting some excercise!
