He had a good night. They both did. The lady at the stud says it’s like he’s been here before, just knows what he’s doing!

What an absolute stunner. Amazing how you can just tell when an "old soul" has come back.

He is a bit windswept but think he will straighten out over the next few days

I keep coming back to look at the pictures again. I love that middle picture where mum is sniffing his head, all loving, and his face is like "eeeeewwwww! Muuuuuuuum!" ?

What a strong looking boy. Congratulations! Mum looks to be doing a great job too.
ETA - If I was ordering a foal, he'd be exactly what I'd order!

I am sooooooo broody! we were planning to try again this year but I think it'll be next year now, want to find out the outcome of our planning application first really because it would be so much easier doing foalwatch living on site and having proper facilities. Booo. I am not a fan of grown up decisions. will be getting my fix here!

I am overjoyed. I think I was shell shocked last night. I can’t believe he’s here and arrived so civilly of an evening with no issues. I had braced myself for all sorts.
He’s at the stud so I won’t see him until Friday
Thank you for all the kind comments. Who has previously been called a “hairy bog cob” and I was told I was breeding “sh!te from sh!te” so for him to arrive and be so gorgeous is amazing

Not that she is, but my friend had 20 amazing years with a "hairy bog cob" including coming 5th at the BRC eventing champs two years in a row. If someone called one of my horses that I'd thank them for the compliment!
She's exactly my sort of horse as is little Thyme. You've struck gold twice with them.

To be fair I have no problems with hair bog cobs but it was said in a derogatory manner!

I wasn't suggesting you were being nasty about them, just saying that if someone said that to me, even in a derogatory manner, I'd smile sweetly and thank them. Partly as it's true that I think it is a compliment and partly as it would put them back their box nicely

Hairy bog cob!! ? They'd have apoplexy if I bred mine then ? (not that I will, thanks muscle myopathy ?). I love your mare Abi, I think I said last year on a thread that I was exited to see your foal because the mare is so smart. And I'm just so completely smitten by his pictures that I'm probably being a bit weird now... ?

My current steed is a hairy bog cob, if I hadn’t clipped him, and he is awesome!!
