Foaling 2020...

[chandab]

Nasty weather last night, put out our power after midnight, and...
a tiny smoky black filly came out too. Bonny had the tiniest little smoky black filly. And, as far as I could see not a stitch of white on her, and looks to be dark eyes, not even baby blues, but with the wind, I just got her in the barn and left them for more bonding time out of the wind (windy and only about 55 above this morning). [I'll have to do the math, but I think this puts her at 320 days at the most.]
I haven't put up my 2020 foaling stats here this year. This is actually my second foal of the season, but the first came too early, about 3 weeks ago.
I have one or two more to go. Pictures later.

Congratulations!! Can't wait for pictures

They aren't great, as the little barn doesn't have power, and it's overcast and windy today, but here are a few dark pictures.

 

[Taz]

Oh she's gorgeous!!!!! So tiny

Awww! Dished head and nice length of neck! Look forward to seeing her after the Unfolding.

 

[chandab]

Thank you. She's cute; and such a change from her full-siblings: first there was a smoky silver black colt, then a silver buckskin filly, now a smoky black.
She's not quite as upright as her brother was, but a bit more upright than her sister. Such a nasty day to be born on, just windy now, but she may have already been through a rain/hail storm, or she came right after it was over, cause she was dry when I found her first thing this morning.

Ok, used a foaling date calculator, and from earliest turn out she is 313 days. From the day I saw Topper pursuing her she is only 306 days.

Aww so cute and fragile looking!

What's the Old Horseman's Saying? Look at them at 3 days, 3 months, and then 3 years?

A couple pictures of Rain from today, she's 8 days old. We've had icky weather, so they've mostly been in the stall this past week.

And, Tana foaled last night, looks like she has a mini-me colt, as he appears to be the same color as she is:
I didn't think it was any more chilly this morning then when Bonny foaled, but this little guy was shivery, so I blanketed him (forgot I had the camera with me, until after I blanketed).

So adorable! Congratulations!

 

[Taz]

Congratulations!! He's adorable!!!!!!

 

[MerMaeve]

Awww, so cute! Congrats! What's your secret for actually having the babies? I think @Taz, @Pitter Patter, and @Kristin need to know.....

 

[Kristin]

I agree MerMaeve!! We need help!!

Well, I kind of knew when they were bred, since they've been here for their whole lives, and even though I pasture bred, I only turned the stallion out for one month wit the girls. We did lose one, she came too early to be viable; and we have one maybe to go, she doesn't look pregnant, but if she took the last day out with the stallion, I still have several weeks of mare stare to go.
