I thought it would be fun to see members' first foals, and their most recent foals!!!
This is the first foal we ever had born. She was born from a mare I bought because I wanted to have a new driving horse (which she did become) and I bought her despite the fact she "might" have been pregnant. She was pregnant, and in the spring of 2001, this is what I helped bring into the world -- "Morningstar", a perlino filly! Morningstar is now a/k/a "Lily" and does all kinds of tricks for her "new" person:
Then this is the first horse that was "sort of" my breeding. I let my former trainer breed a mare she owned, and I loved, named Lou, to my then stallion, Derby. A couple of months later, she needed to sell the mare, and I bought her. In the spring of 2003, she had the colt below that we named WFM's Skippin Miracle (Triple H Derby Day Miracle x Edgewood Skip to My Lou), who is a/k/a "Skipper". I had a blast showing him to some championships as a yearling gelding...
Then this past Monday morning, we were blessed with our newest foal, a filly we named WFM's Delightfully Dun. She is out of our Buckeroo granddaughter, Erica's Big City Bomb Shell and by our National Top 10 / Honor Roll / Multi Championstallion, Erica's Gone and DunIT. She's got dun factor, is a double dilute, and double Buckeroo bred. I just love her so much already. She's a little bit of a "milestone" for me as it's the first time we bred a mare that I grew up from a weanling... I actually think I bought Bomb Shell from Erica when she was just a couple weeks old, and had anticipated this cross for years:
What about your folks? Let's see and hear about your first foal(s) and your most recent!!!
