Rodney has gone out!

[Sooty]

I am totally hooked on the Rollestone foal cam, and have just seen Rodney and his mum being put out! link Random, I know... I love Rodney!

 

[MissIndependance]

Hah well spotted - yup he's out and got some nice piccies of him and mumhaving a leg stretch in the sunshine!! Will get them up tonight!

I loved watching the vids of him being born and his photos but cant seem to find the live webcam

He is such a cutie- I am looking forward to his updates

Click on the link in my post, then there is a link to the cam on the website.

Oooh yes please! They both looked so calm walking out this morning. Pure chance I caught them. Makes up for no foal last night - just a big poo stain!

 

[MissIndependance]

Lol it was a HUGE poo stain wasn't it!! In a very unusual place so high on her back!

 

[Sooty]

Excellent view of Lozanna's box now. Enjoyed watching the camera being moved!

I've never been addicted to a webcam before...

 

[MissIndependance]

lol I apologise for my numpty other half pulling faces - her didn't know it was connected to the web and not our cctv monitor!!

It's a bit more distant now but at least half the box isnt missing!

Who is the horse on the camera now? She looks ready to drop, her belly is really low!

 

[Sooty]

Erm... as resident foalcam spy (it does feel odd to watch someone else's yard) I can tell you that the mare is called Lozanna. And all she is doing is eating!

 

[_jetset_]

Come on Lozanna... it's baby time

 

[MissIndependance]

Lola to her friends!!

Just watched a live birth go horribly wrong resulting in mare losing her baby - am now super-paranoid for the rest of our girls...

 

[Sooty]

Really sorry to hear that.

I hope the rest go as smoothly as Rodney's did. Lola is a great name!

 

[MissIndependance]

Some pictures of his first time out have now finally made it to our gallery - finding time to keep the site up to date with pics and look after 2 young children, as well as the horses isn't easy!!

Still no Lola foal...

 

[Sooty]

Oh he is gorgeous!!! His markings are so symmetrical - stunning. I like his blue eye, too. Any idea how big he will grow? *stop it Sooty!* Even my OH is taking an interest in Lola, although he isn't interested in horses...yeah, right.

 

[Happy Horse]

He is beautiful! Do you expect his dark bits to stay so dark?

 

[MissIndependance]

He shouldn't be huge, despite being so tall nowas both mum and dad are only 125.2 and 15.3 so he'll make around those sort of heights I think.

He will probbaly be a very dark bay and white - will look almost black I suspect

 

[Sooty]

Perfect height!

That is what we hope Beano will end up as.
