Should I hit the panic button?

[Emilieu]

A reference to 'sun' as a counter to Gypsum's 'moon' as a link to his Spanish heritage?

Hermosa's Sunshine on Snow Wood

What about Regalo?

"Gift" in Spanish.

 

[babymare]

Oh my word he is beautiful. Congratulations. I’m smiling like Cheshire Cat for you ??

 

[HBB]

Oh wow!!! He is stunning! Huge congratulations

 

[CanteringCarrot]

Inesperado (unexpected)...for a name


Or

Sol favorito

It means Favourite Sun
sort of a play on favourite son

I'm no good at names, just feel like it needs some Spanish flair.

 

[Lammy]

Congrats CI! ? I hope you can enjoy him more now that he’s arrived safely.

I like Panic Button and The Last Laugh. Also like Geoff as a stable name but it’s not very Spanish ?

 

[Marnie]

Congratulations, I'm really pleased that everything has gone smoothly and he is beautiful x

 

[Kkst14]

Congratulations. How about Regalo which I think means gift keeps with Spanish theme

 

[Rosemary28]

Pleased it all went smoothly you'll sleep well tonight!

 

[Squeak]

Congratulations. He's absolutely stunning and so relieved that it was a smooth birth.

 

[Fransurrey]

Congratulations! Looks quite dun in the pics. Didn't someone say that's quite unusual in PRE or Spanish? He's gorgeous whatever.

 

[Errin Paddywack]

So very relieved and pleased that he is here safely and now suckling. Now hopefully you can enjoy them both.

 

[Emilieu]

If he is dun then Dun Deal? Since, you know, his arrival was a done deal from the start...

 

[AandK]

What a crazy thread, have been following it from the start and was one who thought it was just the grass... (same happened to my old mare) So pleased the little one has arrived safely this morning, congratulations but more pics please!

 

[Laurac13]

“Arcoiris” is rainbow in spanish

thinking gypsum’s last gift to you from rainbow bridge x

 

[SatansLittleHelper]

Yayyyy congratulations..!!!!! Does he have any white on him..?? He looks like he is the solid coloured colt I predicted ?
So pleased it all went so well x

I don't think it is soo rare, but I am not sure.

I've been windown shopping and exclusively looking at Buckskins and Duns, there are a fair amount out there. I am not sure about the actual genes of the Duns I have seen, though. I don't know which ones would be considered "true Dun" as I've heard people throw that term around. I haven't delved that deep.

My PRE is like a solid bay dun of sorts, similar in color to Hermosa (can fluctuate a bit with the seasons/coat). He has a very prominent dorsal stripe, tiger striping on his legs, and shading at the withers (which shows better sometimes than other times). I mean, he's just bay, but has features that other bays may not.

 

[McFluff]

Congratulations - he looks lovely. You will enjoy having a wee time vampire

 

[brighteyes]

Love Button as a stable name and all the Spanish suggestions relating to gift.

 

[indie1282]

Hermes ?

 

[Baywonder]

Oh he is an absolute beauty! ??

Well done Hermosa and well done @Caol Ila for holding everything together during your whirlwind week!

 

[DarcyPercy]

Congratulations! Such a beauty!

 

[Apercrumbie]

HOORAY! So glad both are safe and sound, I'm sure you're all very relieved. The next few weeks should be a LOT easier and I hope you rest well tonight.

But these wishes only apply if you keep posting pictures. Them's the rules

 

[maya2008]

Congratulations!

 

[CanteringCarrot]

What a crazy week though. The thread was started about one week ago.

From expecting nothing, to hmm could be enjoying the grass and clover a bit, to or?

Then boom. Pregnant. Due soon. Then foal! Wild ride!
