Please pray for all the staff and horse owners at Woodland Run this morning. It’s every horse person’s worst nightmare to have a barn fire and I know they will be devastated. They also are resilient and no doubt will rebuild but they’ll need all our prayers to get through this.
This is a great reminder and some good photos to go along with it.🚨 We have seen TWO RED BAGS in the past 4 days!! It is time for our annual foaling post about RED BAG DELIVERIES! We share this post every year as we are determined to educate as many as possible and save foals! ![]()

We are in the midst of foaling season and we want to remind you of what is normal and abnormal. The placenta is made up of two major parts: the red bag (chorioallantois) and the white bag (amnion). The red bag attaches to the uterine wall, which allows the exchange of nutrients and oxygen to the fetus. ![]()

In a normal delivery the amnion is visible and characterized by a white appearance. A red bag delivery is characterized by a red velvety appearance. 🚨 A red bag delivery is considered an EMERGENCY as it signifies premature separation of the placenta leading to a lack of oxygen to the fetus. ‼️YOU NEED TO INTERVENE IMMEDIATELY ‼️ The red placental membrane should be opened carefully to release fluid, the foal should be delivered/pulled with your assistance and then stimulated to breathe. Foals may develop problems associated with lack of oxygen even though they appear normal at birth. ![]()

⭐️ If your mare is having OR HAD a red bag delivery, please call Pine Ridge Equine Hospital 918-827-8000 ASAP or your regular veterinarian! ![]()
