We had a spot attack this morning at Lucky Trails Farm.
Foal alert went off at 4:55am, checked cameras, Dove was kicking her belly, up and down but no bubble was visible so knew there was a problem. Went in to check and got kicked! OH! Maiden mare Tried again, this time she figured out I was trying to help and had hip bones presenting. After 32 minutes of fairly intense repositioning, had a breech delivery- he wanted us to see the spots first! LITTLE colt, only 5 1/4" cannon bone
AMHA/AMHR registered, AMHR futurity nominated
Here he is at about 1-2 hours old:
I believe he is silver dapple (near) leopard. This mare is not quit 30" but the stallion is 34" so a bit surprised at how tiny he is.
Also had a bay filly born last weekend while we were off winning the fire truck
her barn name is Ransom (short for the staff ran some to get her, LOL) , here she is at 1 day:
Both are sired by Images Little SuperStar (5x National Champion, multiple HOF)
