The Tessy bear BOGOF thread

Fab news. Foal safe on the ground and mum fine, couldn't be better:) She looks a lovely stocky girl with good markings.

btw don't panic if the afterbirth hasn't come out yet, it can take a few hours, just try to keep it out of her way by tieing it up to her tail.
 
weather here is amazing no wind and supposed to get to 18 degrees !! we are keeping them in till the vet comes and then will chuck them both out for a few hours on some lush grass for test ! will video foals first adventure for everyone to see
 
I just clicked through these pages frantically and am absolutely delighted to hear that everything went well and that Tessy and foal are both OK. The filly is GORGEOUS and you deserve to be very proud, both of Tessy and yourself. :) You've taken wonderful care of TB and now you have a beautiful, healthy filly as the result.

Have a brilliant day off and spend some time just relaxing! Congratulations. :)
 
I am a lurker and have LOVED this thread...but am very worried it will now end...? I have logged on every day holding my breath! Lovely foal..phew..can we follow her progress please?

I wont leave you all hanging :D I will update probably now every day and eventually slow it down to one update a week i think :)
 
I haven't posted so far, but have become rather addicted to this thread. Well done TessyBear and congratulations Abbie. Yeyy! :D

ETS: I've just seen the photos, she's lovely!

She is a stunner :D Well done to Tess, she did a grand job cooking that (not so) little lady....cant wait to see more pics etc :)

Well done Abbie, you should be incredibly proud of yourself xxxxxx
 
My unhorsey OH asked first thing this morning if THE foal had arrived and I hadn't logged on. Off he went to work so text him earlier to say yes and he immediately text back to ask what colour and filly or colt. He NEVER responds to my texts that quickly normally, TessyBear you are one special girlie.:D

Only one a week?? So pleased for you, this time last year my mare had a still birth which was so sad makes seeing such a healthy foal all the more special.
 
Filly : Still debating names here ;)

What a gorgeous gorgeous (not so) little girl, Tessy did a good job cooking her, she looks days old already! Think you might have a big one there :p
