Heidi is starting to unfold nicely! Supposed to have rain for the next few days ( again) so sadly they will be in the barn a bit longer. At least lil Heidi has a long stall to stretch her legs a bit... She is turning into a sweet friendly girl and loves her scratches... Its so funny I love all my foals, but there is just something extra special to me about Kates foals, possibly because she is such a good mare and I just love her soooo much!
Ok so a bit off topic, Being that Kate is a grade welsh ( her foals are all reg 1/2 welsh because of the sire) I know NOTHING of her bloodline, I wasnt able to trace her all the way back to her breeders, but as far back as I could find she was from a welsh and Quarter farm in East texas some where, and thats a Large area lol! Ok so on with this .... So far 4 of 4 of Kates foals have been roan like her, what do yall think the possibility of her being homozygous for the roan gene is? I know I could get her tested to know for sure, and heck I gues she is until she throws a solid, but I am starting to think its a pretty darn good possibility she is!
