Well, I finally get to say: Meet Troy

YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Well done all of you and thank god you now get some sleep hun! well done whata stunner!
 
Good point HH. I think I might make a post about this as it would be quite interesting to see the results....and may also enlighten a lot of people about the true cost of it all. Perhaps it will give them a better understanding of why some weanlings cost so much.

Glad he's arrived safely.
As a guide for others, and if you don't object, could you work out what it's cost you so far to get a live foal?
I think many people would be shocked, and as a breeder feel prices for horses are often far too low comapared to the cost of rearing them.
(don't forget to include keeping the mare for 11 months plus 6 after foaling...)

See mine, I was keeping the mare anyway, so it cost me £132.50 for covering fee and keep fees, (back in 1992 though!) and £20ish for swab and wash out and £15 ish for scan. And not much more for feed, just stud mix insted of coarse mix, and a tub of limestone flour!
 
Congratulations - so happy it all went well for all.

Isn't he dark - i thought he'd be similar colour to Fin but he is alot darker and lucky you having equal white back feet not 3 odd ones like our Pro baby. I think he is a touch smaller than Fin so think Pro throws them big!!

Big hug from me and Troy's half brother will be so interesting to see how they compare as they grow up!! I'm just about to get whole photo album done of Fin from born to 2 yrs - wow the changes are incredible - you have it all to come!!!
 
He is absolutely gorgeous!! I bet you are so chuffed!!
Well, done you and Hannah!!
I like Rebels Prospect (no apostraphie!!)
 
Congratulations to you and Hannah! I hope you let the little monkey know how many people he had waiting for him
