That's a cracking foal, she's got a hell of a chest on her at 3.5m, she's probably half as big again now.

I love the chook in the first one saying "refocus..refocus I should be mid picture!"

she was born with white legs but they will be black shortly and possibly 3 white socks, she goes back strongly to her grand sire.

the chook - is she a black rock by any chance? - looks just like ours.

yes,love BRs,had em for years but they go miles all round the farm and god knows where they lay their eggs half the time-quite funny seeing hubby following them to see where they go-hee hee.

we had 3 originally, 2 went within days of each other (blown of their perch over night in very high winds - they roost in the rafters of one of the buildings), and the 3rd one keeps on going. We reckon she's 4 now and still laying well, when you can find the eggs! She shouts/moans all the time and has become known as Moaning Myrtle! This is her.
we also have 2 bantam white wyandottes (thing1 and thing2 - tennis balls with legs and attitude), a bantam leghorn (Skippy, cos she runs like a kangaroo), a bantam wellsummer (woody, the bossiest thing on 2 legs) and an Ancona called BiggLes (the scattiest thing on 2 legs). They are sooo much fun to have around, they'll join you on the patio for tea and biscuits, or in the kitchen, or help with poo-picking, mucking out, feeding or changing rugs even! They love to meet and greet visitors - the postman is scared of them!

we have 4 BRs, they're lucky to survive cos when OH is feeding the hounds they stick their heads through the mesh to pick up any stray biccies,hounds are on dry food by the way, and they never take notice of the little sods,as you say its nice to see them about.

I have just seen this thread!
What a good looking pacer foal. Love her dad. Remember him being shipped over to Oz to compete in the Interdominian 1997 (?), but unfortunately he had to be withdrawn due to some health issues. If I remember correctly the NZ racing channel "Trackside" even screened a little story due to him being a good quality pacer coming all the way from Europe to compete!
