Only gone and bought a foal...

[windand rain]

Is it a C you want? Peter said he's got four fillies I'm going to have a look at the A's too, not sure what he's got 3/4+ though, I only have the two stables and no more will come up...going to try and get some grazing too but its like gold dust unfortunately

Yes a C or a highland love fillies cant cope with boys as dont have the right facilities and all the encumbrants are filles and mares

There's another chestnut filly on the menai fb page, she's got a beautiful head. He's got a couple of cracking colts too, I was sorely tempted but would be a shame to geld and I don't have the facilities (or the balls, pun intended!) to keep one entire. I'll have a good nosey when I visit and update the thread He does produce fabulous stock.

On another note, did you see the highland that's just been advertised on fb, can't remember any details except he's 3 and bloody gorgeous! Seriously amazing.

The best pony I ever had was a Welsh C chestnut mare, I loved her but she was intended for my son who then gave up and she was just too short coupled for me to be able to put a saddle on that suited both of us. Yes she had an opinion but was actually the calmest, safest pony ever. I wish I know where she was now.

Best breed ever! Looks a cracker- enjoy!

 

[tda]

Thank you, she’s fab! My friend said her cannons look a little long, I’m rubbish with confo but she doesn’t need to be a world beater anyway!

Why would someone say that, especially a friend, when you have that smart little thing to take home!! Smart matching socks 😍

Oh I did ask her for opinion, lol.

Wow i could have written this post! Glad its not just me having a mid life crisis! I'm now on count down 40 sleeps till my foal gets delivered. I to wasn't looking for anything, I've got a fab 14 yr old, I've had since an un backed 4 year old i adore and just spotted an advert for this beautiful warmblood filly that i couldn't get out of my head. So needless to say deposit is paid and we are all super excited i think shes going to keep us on our toes.

 

[Surbie]

Oh!! She is total cuteness overload!! That face and tail carriage....*melts*

 

[Cinnamontoast]

Scrumptious! She’d do a cracking inhand show.

I love her expression in the top pic, she’s giving some serious stink eye I expect she’ll be the polar opposite of my cool as a cucumber Highland but it’s good to mix things up.

Thank you! Jeez, I could barely keep up with my A...I’d better get some sprinting practice in, lol. Be so lovely to get her out next year, can’t wait.

I did the same 2 years ago and I now have a lovely 2 year old. It has gone so quick and so far has been definitely worth it! From her being unhandled and boxing her up to being able to do so much with her now. Its amazing to think that is all down to the time I've spent with her and the trust we have in each other. Enjoy every minute. It will go so quick! I can't wait for next year when mine is 3 and I can play about with her a bit more! She's literally had winter on a livery yard, out during the day and in at night and spends around april-october out at a stud with other broodmares/youngsters.

 

[Suechoccy]

oooh she's lovely, looks like a big personality in there too. You will have loads of fun and maybe a few challenges I reckon but very rewarding overall. She's going to be beautiful as an adult too.

 

[Bernster]

Oh she’s gorgeous. I love the trot pic! Lovely colour too.

 

[southerncomfort]

Oh beautiful!!

Sorry you've had such a bad time recently. I think this little one will bring you lots of fun times ahead. xx

 

[peanut]

She's absolutely stunning. She also looks like she's got plenty of confidence and attitude!!

 

[poiuytrewq]

Absolutely beautiful, perfection!

 

[Lammy]

Not sure what I’m thinking with a chestnut mare, and welsh to top it off!

Defo an incentive to lose weight....

Welsh chestnut mares are the best!

 

[milliepops]

Welsh chestnut mares are the best!

agreed :biggrin3:

vv v cute, OP, look forward to lots more photos.

 

[Meowy Catkin]

Oh she's gorgeous! I so want a youngster now, she's such a darling and looks to have a real spark about her.

Spoiler

She looks bright bay to me.

 

[milliepops]

glad you said that faracat because I thought I had noticed her black knees and hocks. Bay welsh mares are pretty cool too IME!

Oh do you think? I'm cr*p with colours, lol

I also thought she was bay until everyone said what a lovely chestnut, I would expect the light hair in her mane and tail to go once she loses her baby fluff and the dark points should also become clearer/ more deep in colour.

 

[milliepops]

she's going to be a stunner either way HiPo

 

[HiPo'sHuman]

Thanks! I don't care either way, as long as she's not grey - I'm fed up of blinking greys and trying to keep them clean

 

[Meowy Catkin]

LOL, the youngster I have been admiring (but can't afford *sobs*) is grey. My grey is normally very clean and ladylike, I wonder if she has lulled me into a false sense of security RE greys, mud, stains and cleaning!

 

[blodwyn1]

Menai rarely breed a bad one!

 

[Leo Walker]

She is 100% bay! the creamy bits will shed out to black. She is so pretty. I was in the market for a youngster till things changed and I am so foal broody!

 

[HiPo'sHuman]

Well guys, the excitement was short lived...circumstances literally changed overnight, I'll be moving to a new house 460 odd miles away with my own land and the set up just wouldn't be right for a weanling unfortunately. I've spoken to her breeder who has been so understanding, I also apologised profusely - feel like the biggest time waster. It really sucks being sensible

 

[Winifleur]

Oh oh oh!! So jealous she's beautiful!!
