Raven's youngster is sure turning into a good looker.

Good morning.  I have been so busy and sick on top of that.  My apologies for not being here to reply.

 

The foals and mares go out in a paddock alone until we know that the foal has bonded well to the mare.  Then they are introduced to the mare and foal group.  They stay together until weaning time.

 

Betty you are very observant.  I went to a farm yesterday and picked up three mares.  This mare was not on my list to be picked up but the owner gave me a heck of a deal on her so that she didn't have to foal her out.  She had just lost a mare and foal and is now foaling shy.  This mare is a producer of some incredible babies that have gone on to make a name for themselves.  She is also bred to an incredible stallion that is no longer available to the public.  I swore "no more - no more" but this was a deal I couldn't resist.  I am praying for a safe foaling.  She is friendly but is not accoustomed to having assistance at birth, so we are not sure how she will be.  And being that we are new and she is pretty much due anytime at the end of this month, we are hoping we can get her acclimated to us and her surroundings so she is comfortable when it comes time.

Her name is Freedom's Song.  We can't decide what to call her.

Don't believe I have seen this one before and she is not on the "expecting" list. Any introductions?

Heather,

Just wondering...where do the mares with foals go once they leave the foaling barn? It would be fun to see them now. Second question: how many more foals are you expecting this season?  I miss you already!!!

I haven't seen the name of the little "big" filly yet. Also was looking for some nice color pictures sometime. Do love her antics in black and white too though.

What a solid little girl, is Paris baby chestnut or Bay?

Paris sure got her figure back in a hurry. and yes that foal is huge especially for a maiden. A real looker though. Glad to see them both enjoying the outdoors tonight.
