As most of you know, I have three foals to officially name this time and they all will have my Maesfen prefix so I'm struggling for names. I know how you all love putting your thinking caps on and going wild with suggestions so here's another three for you!

There are Harry and Freddy, the bay colts I'm rearing on the bucket (can't give you the breeding on them for privacy reasons) and Kitty, the filly born a fortnight ago (how time flies!)

Freddy is a know it all, cocky lager lout of a boy who I am leaning towards Flintoff for his name but open to suggestions. Typically, if so minded, you could geld him now, he has enormous bells!

Harry is very much one in the background, very handsome and kind, butter wouldn't melt, the type you'd take home to meet Mum! Leaning towards Meade ATM for obvious reasons!

BTW, you have a job to find pips let alone bells, could be a late developer!

Both boys should make decent all rounders with possibly Freddy being competition/hunting material as he's virtually ISH.

Kitty is very sweet and pretty, debating whether to be a redhead or brunette, can't quite make up her mind ATM! She is definitely to be aimed at a competition lifestyle keeping fingers crossed. She is full TB, by One More Tiger out of Witches Broom. I'm thinking something like M Which (or Witch) Tiger; would like to keep the cat theme. Was originally (before she was born!) thinking of Black Cat or Witches Cat.

All suggestions gratefully received!

PMSL! Just splattered tea all over the keyboard, thanks!

That would be great if I was driving them unicorn fashion!

Perhaps Freddy should be I'm Evil!

What about Hellcat for Kitty? My mate calls me that, I take it as a compliment :P

My RI had a 'Flashy Freddie' and a 'Famous Freddie'. Or 'Freddie Mercury'? - he was a real show off.

Harry Up? Carry On Harry?

Apologies if those are a bit lame.
 
I really like Flintoff and would stick with that.

Not sure about Harry, don't really like Meade. Will get my thinking cap on.

For Kitty I like Which Tiger but also what about:
M. McCavity
M. Curiosity (as in killed the cat LOL)
 
I suppose if Freddie is really evil you could go with M.Kruger,

Harry as a handsome charmer, what about M.007 or M.Belafonte (as Harry Belafonte the singer)
Kitty could be M. Red Malkin, a malkin is a cat or witch familiar, can't remember if you said she was chesnut or not.

Sorry not very good, useless at name.
 
You can partly say what the boys breeding is Pat! Freddy is out of a coloured traditional cob mare and by a TB who's sire was Sadler's Wells. Harry is out of a Welsh Cob x ID mare by a TB who's sire was Gone West.
 
Thanks for that, just didn't want to ruffle any feathers!

You should see them now lording it in the field behind the house, they love the space. I'm in a quandary though; it's been so nice last couple of days and nights, probably won't get much better all year, but I don't know about leaving them out all night; what do you think? I'm perfectly happy to still feed them at midnight in the field, I'm just a bit wary of disorientating them when they've been so used to a soft warm bed with lighting and knowing exactly the boundaries, if that makes sense; don't want to frighten them witless and possibly go running through the fences.
Having written that down and seen it in black and white, it makes sense to keep bringing them in at night until at least they are weaned off the bucket I think, what say you?

I would not be leaving them out at night without a nanny or 2. As you rightly say, just not worth it. Do they all go out together yet?
 
No nannies available! Parky has gone back to stud so Bea and Kitty are in Chapel field, Joey and Sylvie on the top and boys in the back; Cromarty and sprog are due back shortly and will join Bea. I don't trust Bea not to chase them around and beat them witless, she's already taught Kitty not to go anywhere near her when she's eating! I think it will have to be Sylvie and Joey later but J is shod and you know how he likes to play so I'm a bit paranoid about that too!
They seem perfectly happy with their own company and don't go standing next to the fence or gate to get close to the others but I do want them to learn their field/herd manners some time; just think it will have to wait until they aren't being bucket fed to avoid any jealousy.
 
Awww they all sound lovely!
