Chablis and Rosie

[txminipinto]

Howdy! I thought I would share our link for our foaling cam as well. Foaling season is my favorite season. Its better than Christmas!

Pondering Oaks Foaling

As far as inside mares, we only have 2 due this year but we hope to have some outside mares later this year for foaling.

Chablis WAH is due 1/2/2012. She is a solid bay ASPC over mare in foal to Happy Hooligan O.K. This is the first cross for these two and I'm super excited to see what they do.

Chablis has had foals for other farms but this is her first for us.

Country Star Rosie Flores is due 1/6/2012. She is a bay pinto ASPC mare also in foal to Happy Hooligan O.K. This is the 2nd cross and her 4th foal (she's a day time foaler too!)

Hi n welcome!! Can we see some piccies of your gorgeous girls? Will you have them set up on cameras or on marestare? Thanks for joining us here

can't wait to see your gorgeous new babies when they arrive

 

[a mini dream come true]

Welcome Glad to be watching

From what I can see they are very pretty. My Dlilah is due in January and she looks about like your Country Star Rosie. I was afraid she was too thin, but she look about like yours. May miss the foaling if they foal during the day, but I'll try to watch when I get off work. Again welcome and thanks for the link. I have them up.

hi and welcome to the nut house...

thanks for shareing with us ..your mares look lovely..

us ladys on here love pictures

are these your first foals

 

[Wings]

I'm so pleased different countries have different foaling seasons! When Australia goes quiet I get new mares to watch

Your mares are lovely

Let me see if I can try the pictures again. I tried the first time and they were huge.

Happy Hooligan O.K. - black and white ASPC/PtHA Stallion. 44" tall. Has his Hall of Fame in Classic Halter, as well as PtHA ROM in Halter, and is a PtHA World Champion. These 2 foals will be #4 and #5 for him (keeping my fingers crossed they're both fillies!).

Chablis WAH - bay ASPC mare. about 45" tall. Not sure how many foals she has had but she is not a maiden. No foaling history on her. This is the first cross for her and Happy, and I'm pretty excited about it.

Country Star Rosie Flores - bay pinto ASPC Mare. about ~43" tall. This is foal number 4 for her, and the 2nd one with Happy.

This is the full sibling, a 2010 filly, Be Happy.

Our cam is hosted by Marestare and I wouldn't be without that service! They saved 2 of our foals last year. Had I not been woken by the phone ringing I would have missed an elbow dystocia and a foal not getting out of the bag. It pays to have the cameras or at least send mares out to farms with cameras!

Both mares can "hide" while standing. Unfortunately there's nothing I can do to fix that right now. During foaling, everyone should have a good view. Thanks for watching!

Suffering massive stallion envy here!

[a mini dream come true]

[cassie]

please know though I will be watching from now on!!

its 3:38am where you are right now!!

 

[txminipinto]

Thanks guys!

And hey Eagle! I always think its pretty cool that people from around the world can peek inside my barn as I do theirs! Its pretty fun. Foaling time is my favorite season for that, just because I love watching what goes on when I'm not around.

We are selling down...so for the right price...I'll send anyone any where right now!

Its been raining here since midnight (which is wonderful) but I need to go out and feed everyone. Kinda wishing I hadn't turned some horses out in the way back this morning. I'm going to get wet!

Do you want one?

I can totally hook you up!

Changes for Rosie over the night! She has a nice small bag with golden colostrum this morning. Right on schedule for her at 315 days! Her last foal was at 328 days so that would put her at 1/4/12. She needs to cross her legs until the 1st.

 

Chablis is still hanging on to any developments.

Hi and Welcome!

What gorgeous horses you have!

 

[Riverrose28]

Your ponies are awesome, do you also have ASPC/AMHR?

 

[txminipinto]

No, unfortunately I do not raise anything (at least on purpose) that matures under 42". I wish I did though or I would have sold everything this year. I just prefer the bigger ponies as I have some chronic back issues. Plus the competition hasn't been as thick so it levels the playing field.

Rosie's first filly did mature into the AMHR height range and her owners did hardshp her. Her last filly "looked" to be staying small but the sire is 44" so there is no way I would even suggest that it could happen.
