    Sadly the colt above passed away. Found out the reason he was not active is he was compacted with fur. We clipped mom but he was always nuzzling her. We gave him enemas and he was passing poop but still down. His mom also rolled on his front leg so was very sore. Went out this am to him gone...

    Sadly Flutterby's colt died during the night. Feathers baby is doing fantastic. Will get outside pictures later. Spent the morning looking for our LGD. He was acting weird lastnight and was nowhere to be found this am. Didn't come when called. He showed up from the neighbors when I was turning...

    We have a colt and are done for 2018. Sire was a 100% filly producer until tonight. Was a text book delivery. He has 7" cannons but looks all legs. Not exactly sure of color but think black or smoky black tobiano. Will know better once dry and outside. Has one blue eye so either got LWO+ from...

    Well finally found a nice amount of foal poop. Soft with no hair. He seems more subdued today. Still nursing but standing around with his head down. As for Feather, she held on. Her bag is huge and rock hard. Easily express sticky fluid. Keeping a close eye on her.  She would rather be in her...

    He is not running around but looked a lot better today. I think his mom also stepped on a back leg, so he is limping in the front and the back. He can now lay down and get up on his own. He is more alert and walks around versus standing with his nose to the ground.  Should have our last foal...

    Poor Flash didn't look happy yesterday and during the night. Noticed he stood around with his head down. Never laid down yesterday and took a couple hours last night before he finally laid down. He was do tired he stayed down for several hours. When he finally rised, he was very wobbly. I...

    Feather is 332 days and should foal any day. She is nicely bagged up and can express some clear sticky fluid. Improvement from last year when she had to bag.

    Here is Flash at two days. He is not as active as our others at this age. I think between a rough delivery (red bag, one front leg not aligned, and having to hurry to get him out) and mom rolling and catching a front leg (slight limp) he is a little down. Mom was cramping again yesterday...

    Magic Marker Miniatures has our second to last foal on ground.  Wowser! He is a black frame with blue eyes. Has 7" cannons. Dam was a maiden and foal had one front leg hidden. Finally found it and got it in position. She also red bagged so had to really pull to get him out in time. She is...

    Re- breeding the mare

    In our experience, our mares are hard to get in heat with a baby at side. We just pen the mare/ foal next to a stallion.  We have never had one of our mares come into a "foal heat." We have two mares with foals at their side that we plan on breeding this year. One is penned next to stallions...

    Flutterby (smoky black sabino LWO+) foaled early this am and wowser!  The foal is exactly what we wanted just in boy form. Sire is our dunskin pinto Ten Ls Spirits Afterglow son, Creta Hills Spirit Wildfire. The colt is a black frame with two blue eyes and 7" cannons. Flutterby red bagged and...

    Wind surprised us with a silver dapple colt with a blaze and at least one sock. He is very lax in the fetlocks but should strengthen with time. Bad news is the sire is not the stallion she was supposed to be bred to. We were breeding her to a perlino Buckeroo son. My silver smoky black...

    Well Wind surprised us with a Mothers Day baby. She did not look at all ready but woke me up around 3 am in labor. The foal looks to be a silver dapple colt with a blaze and at least one white sock. He is very lax with his tendons but should strengthen with time. We had bred Wind (smoky black...

    We welcomed a refined and leggy palomino filly this morning around 7:30am. She has a star and snip; and looks to have white on all four feet. She has 7.5" cannons. She was a red bag but was able to break through the placenta and get her out in time. She knew she would be a palomino. Sire...

    Can it be real?

    Hope it doesn't rain much.? Otherwise I think you can put something down gravel wise but can't help you with what. And how to keep it from disappearing in the mudd. If it rain a lot our dry lot turns into a mud lot. Thankfully its not level. Higher on one side, so the top part dries faster.
