2024 Foals

[Asha]

Day 355 and we finally have wax and a bit of milk . She’s pacing around her stable / kicking belly etc etc .

 

[Zoeypxo]

I think i might have a bogof new little mare arrived with a suspiciously large belly. She is bagged up today!

 

[Asha]

Meet Dash ! Living up to his name as he was up and drinking within minutes.
Such a relief as Aria really had us worried yesterday. But today she was much calmer and after keeping me up all night last night decided to give me a good nights sleep by delivering at a respectable time .
Full on red bag delivery , so panic mode set in. I cut the bag reached in and found his hooves and muzzle all in the right place.
I’m off to bed now . He’s a not so little belter !

OMG how stressful. Well done for dealing with it so skilfully and calmly!

 

[Ambers Echo]

Oh just watched video. He's so gorgoeus. I'm broody again! 2025??? x

It must be the right time for foaling. Daisy had a filly this morning, no fuss no bother, both doing just fine.

The warm weather the last 2 days seems to have helped a few along

Who is the sire? Grey presumably judging by his cute little goggles!

 

[ihatework]

God I’m so foal broody right now. Only 3 years to wait

 

[Asha]

Who is the sire? Grey presumably judging by his cute little goggles!

i nearly named him specs because of them ! His dad is a connie called Tulira Darog. Hes a gorgeous traditional type 14.2 grey connie, who is super chilled. Ive seen photos of him giving bare back rides to 4yo kids at a party. I met him at a stallion show and really liked him.

 

[Zoeypxo]

We think so, we have the stallion that was running with them, we have gelded him now! Mare is coloured and the stallion is roany grey with some appaloosa spots aswell.
Both cobby types from the moor

 

[Asha]

Vets been to check bloods etc . All good and given a clean bill of health.
He had his first canter around the field today , making his mum very cross
So I put a Connie on Aria to reduce the size .. that hasn’t worked out he’s as big as her other foals so far

 

[SilverLinings]

He looks lovely @Asha, maybe he won't have too many growth spurts?!

Beginnings of a very nice pirouette there! . He’s beautiful!

 

[QueenBella]

Gorgeous little filly foal born this morning! Mother gave us no signs of foaling anytime soon so had a bit of a lie in only to find a foal down in the stables mother and baby are doing brilliantly! Any ideas what colour the foal will end up being? Dam is a dark bay while the sire is a light bay. Very confused as the foal looks to be chestnut!! Either way she’s perfect!

 

[ihatework]

Congrats- she is most definitely ginger!

 

[Parrotperson]

Oh look at that! Beautiful. Well done mum! Name?

 

[QueenBella]

Oh look at that! Beautiful. Well done mum! Name?

I’m thinking Penny, don’t know why but when I saw her I said perfect little Penny! Will have to see when OH comes home later what he thinks of the name!

 

[Asha]

shes lovely, and most definitely my favourite colour chestnut. Congratulations
