So slowly! How is your foal doing?

She’s absolutely fabulous. So much so we sent her and Aria off to the vets last week . Both back home now and hoping Aria is back in foal again to Archie .

Not the best photo of Amara but thought it was lovely to see three generations . Aria on left Amara in the middle and Asha ( grandma ) on right . She loves her grandma ?

Well, her future field mate who is 2 weeks behind her foaled last night! Earlier than 320 days to a healthy filly! Rosie has no plans of having baby soon! She is looking magnificent though

She certainly is ! Her backend looks as though it’s dropped though , or is that the camera angle ?

I thought that too tbh but not sure if it’s shadow. We’ll say it does ?

Looking massive with massive udder but no wax and back end hasn’t dropped. Cannot be long!!

There was me thinking we were getting a foal arrival post! She doesn't look far away though so I'm sure foalie will be here soon!

Well Rosie had a lovely sleep last night whilst Cat watched her. I don’t think she’s far off but last night she made the most of getting some snooze in

Looks as though the muscles either side her tail have relaxed. Always makes it look as though the tail is raised a bit.

Yes I thought that but I’m also not sure if she’s just lacking muscle from living in a flat field doing no exercise for 6 months

Lacking muscle doesn't usually manifest like that. Definite muscle slackening round tail head. The raised tail effect is always what I look for in our sheep at lambing time.

Now that I have zoomed in, I can definitely see it. Fingers crossed she decides to foal soon then!

Looking absolutely huge and rather uncomfortable. My friend’s daughter has requested the foal for her birthday present on Wednesday. She may just get her wish

Lovely foal and just like his mum, minus the white sock. You must be thrilled with him. Congratulations.

He’s a bit windswept but he should straighten out quickly

We now have something cooking for next year ! A full brother or sister for Amara . Absolutely over the moon . If all goes well we will have full siblings for me and Eleanor . This should be our last foal . Caveats .. if all goes to plan with this one !
Amara just has the nicest outlook to life it would have been daft not to .
Has anyone else got anything for next year ?

How exciting Asha
I was really hoping we'd have another bun in the oven this year but as the lorry is still not plated it has just not been possible. Next year

Thanks milliepops. have you decided on a stallion , or will you be stallion shopping next year ?

Oh this is making me want another foal! But I need a horse to ride! I think I want an Archie foal out of Rosie when Percy comes into work

I had decided on Royal Rubin which is a direct son of Rubinstein (for temperament
) and an international GP horse himself but he's getting on a bit so hopefully he's still around next year!
