December photos/Equine Affaire: On Target Miniature 2012 foals

[targetsmom]

She is in the backyard, Toffee and Clyde are in small pasture next to her and Mira and Bunny are in sand ring (with hay) next to them! Lots of photos taken. Oh, and Ruby is in the big pasture next to both Sox and Toffee. And Buckshot is where he can watch both of his foals - how cool is that? (With 2 fences in between).

One big happy family, Perfect!

Please bear with us as we try something with the camera. Sox is hanging out where she or Toffee used to, which is now right outside Toffee & Clyde's stall. It is about the only place where we can't see her from the house or the camera, so we are about to ROTATE THE CAMERA TEMPORARILY TO VIEW THAT AREA. We plan to do this without unhooking anything, so it might take awhile to get it right and of course we need to rotate it back again at night. It should work, because that was exactly how we got the cam the way it is now, from it's original view of the area outside.

Then for your reward I have some pics from this morning to download and then I am taking a NAP.

Photos: Clyde at 2 days

Checking out his older sister....

Watching Sox:

Being entertained by Bunny... who was practicing pivoting in the dish

we have a great view of outside, it's a shame that Sox isn't there now

 

[targetsmom]

LOL - she is in the backyard (where her photo was taken) trying to squeeze through our vinyl fence into the big pasture. i don't think she and baby will fit though!!!

 

[Eagle]

I am so hoping she goes this evening cos the weekend is here for me nearly and the kids are home to annoy and disturb my watching

 

[Eagle]

I have sent Mary a text message.

 

[AnnaC]

Still no cam for me either - hope everything is ok and it it just that they are moving it about to follow Sox?

 

[Eagle]

I am a bit worried, I sent a message but haven't heard back, do you think we should call.

that all is well

 

[Eagle]

On MS Laurie said she has called both numbers and left messages.

 

[targetsmom]

Thanks guys - we were outside and just got messages. Have NO idea what the problem is but are working on it!!! Can see Sox anyway and she is fine!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE - we found the problem and are back up!!!

 

[AnnaC]

I think we should leave it Renee, if something has happened then they probably have their hands full and may need their phones for other uses. I'm sure with Mary watching Sox so closely she will be right there with her, and I'm sure she either knows the cam is down or will find out soon from the messages already sent.

Think we should just start praying that all is well!

 

[Eagle]

Mary, phewwwwww thank goodness! I was working up a sweat

 

[AnnaC]

Oh thank goodness you responded Mary!! We were beginning to worry and really did not know what to do for the best! Thank goodness all is well.

 

[targetsmom]

Also have no idea why my phone didn't let me know I was getting text messages, except for the fact I don't "DO" text messages so don't know what it would do??? Phone was in my pocket and charged and shows one missed call.

 

[Eagle]

Oh well, at least we know not to text you anymore. Lol

Morning all

just a quick check in before I go feed my horses and let them out

I see sox hasn't foaled yet... I'll try to watch as much as I can to help out. Those pics are adorable, what do you think Clyde will be? Sabino maybe? It's so fascinating how the foal gets the different colors in different places and different shapes it amazes me, I was looking at sox's markings on her back they are so cool its amazing what God can do! He is the best artist! =D anyway going to feed the horses before I get in trouble lol be back soon

 

[cassie]

I see you out there checking udders Mary, any milk? How is she looking?

 

[targetsmom]

Sox's udder is still firm, nipples are full but it is very hard to get milk. The tiny bit that I did get seems very sticky though!

Some photos and videos that I just got around to uploading. Most are from today but I think the video of Bunny is from yesterday.
