I clipped my yearling, I was happy what I found

[CJMM6]

Well we are waiting for our first foal to arrive. :lol:

: All of the girls got bred late. some had 2 breeding dates.

:

But I think all 5 mares are going to foal.

Anyway I clipped my yearling that we kept from my 06 foal crop. I wanted some nice pictures for my website. This is the 1st year we aren't showing & gee wiz, I know she would be a winner;

she is a blue roan pinto. Any who;;;AMHR CJMM Painted Majestic Goddess

She looks very nice.

Can I ask why you are not showing this year, I guess I am behind the curve ball.

She's very pretty, it'd be fun to show her, your son looks like he's shown before, has he? When are your first Styles foals due?

 

[Little Wee Horse Farm]

Absolutely beautiful! Hard to believe she's just a yearling.

What a beautiful mare

: She looks so mature for a yearling she would be sure to show well

: I love your second picture! Joyce

 

[Jill]

He looks great!

Thanks everyone.

: I was sure pleased with what I found in her. Goddess will make a great broodmare to breed to our stallion Styles. Our son showed for the 1st time last year. He is a natural. Our neighbor girl, Hopi

also is a natural Mini horse handler.

I decided early in the year I wasn't showing this year.

: There are several reasons;;My mares are all

due late this year, some had a hard time catching. Foals will be arriveing in late May & June & July. Our winter was pretty bad in Feb. & March so I didn't get much conditioning done. And, I am very sad

when I have to twitch or lipshank the babies to do their ears. :no:

I get very upset at hurting them. I've tried tranqlizers & they don't work. I am very close to my babies & they all love me & trust me. I guess I'm a wuss. This is the 1st year I haven't shown in 7 years

Our foals always mature fast. I guess it is the vitamins & the sweet feed we feed. When our foals are 4 months old they look like yearlings.

Very nice

I have to agree with the others -- that gorgeous filly really should be shown, even if only once!

Have you tried a quiet battery-powered clipper for their ears? I also found clicker-training to help a great deal.

Either way, she is a beautiful girl.

 

[CJMM6]

Yes Susanne, I tried a quiet type of clippers. Nothing works. My babies are so good for their body & leg

clipping but when it comes to ears they go crazy. :no:

All of you people make me feel so proud of my little girl.

: Thank you. cjmm
