Maple Hollow Farms Foaling Camera *New Pics :-D*

Cam is down

Thanks for the compliments on our boys! I will def. be sad if Chippy slipped as her filly last year was awesome and LOUD so was hoping for a repeat. I am honestly still amazed that I have this many mares still in foal after all that they went through! Only having 1 or 2 slip their foals is a miracle in itself! Although not going to lie I wouldnt have bred as many mares last year had I known I wouldnt have as many stalls/pastures/ect. They were all covered before being hit so didnt have much choice, luckily we have been able to make enough stalls to get by, thanks to my mom lending me all of our portable gates that she is missing a lot right now LOL!!!

You can call me or my mom's number is 319-560-1426, she doesnt like giving out her cell number that much so didnt want it posted everywhere but said it would be ok here, she works weekdays so I figure if I get the calls I can jump in my truck and head that way while calling her to tell her to sign out and get moving too. The bad part about the cams at mom's is that their internet is not very reliable. Any time it rains it sometimes will go down which is why it was down earlier, hopefully she wont foal during one of those times or if she does it will be when mom is home and watching her!

Well the weather finally gave me enough of a break and even a bit of sunshine so I could turn all my babies out and get new pictures of Diamond's colt! I am loving the way this colt looks and moves plus he is a sweetheart!

AND he has WHITE HAIRS on his hips!!!!

Also attached some pics of Diamond, she was showing off too LOL!

Woo Hoo! White hairs! Get those clippers out! No telling how much white is hiding under there! He's sure a pretty colt, and Diamond is pretty too!

Woo Hoo! White hairs! Get those clippers out! No telling how much white is hiding under there! He's sure a pretty colt, and Diamond is pretty too!

I sooo want to clip a few of my babies' lil bums but it has been so cold lately although supposed to get up in the high 70s low 80s this week with 7 days of chances for thunderstorms! YUCK! On a happy note though, I bred my first mare for 2013 tonight! Babe is getting bred to Monte! Should be fun and will be my first pintaloosa cross for Monte!

 

[kay56649]

Yeah it would be fun to see what's hiding!! I gotta get my new fully used to the clippers still. Lol

Yep sabrinia is on cam, she is a silver black??? with a roan patch on her back. She is a daughter of Brewers Orion Sable and is around 31" tall and bred to MT! She is 348 days today, complete and total torture LOL!

Sabrinia

They are both beautiful!! I am a big fan of buckskin paints!

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

Well mom said sabrinia had a bit fuller udder tonight and she seems to be pretty restless, keeps swishing her tail and kicking her belly. Going to try and keep a closer eye on her since she is acting different.

 

[kay56649]

Ooooooo. Thats exactly how my mate acted the night she foaled!!!!

 

[Eagle]

All is quiet at 12.45am

I think Sabrinia likes her quarters

 

[LittleBittyBritches]

Too cute. I dont know how to get those pics off the camera like that but they sure are funny usually!

Darn mare is keeping us waiting apparently. The pressure was dropping last night and we had thunderstorms so was hopeful she would finally get down to business but apparently not! Great picture!!! She does indeed like her bed and breakfast, mom turned her out to stretch her legs last night and she paced the fence wanting back in the whole time!

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

Well Sabrinia's udder is a bit fuller today, it is to the point a couple of our other mares had foaled at so keeping an eye on her especially with more storms moving through! Still not a full udder but that doesnt seem to matter this year LOL!

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

Just some fun pictures of the babies :-D Maestro and Faith are the stars of most of them since they get into so much trouble together! All of the colts are unbelievably ornery!!! My lil buckskin pinto colt is getting naughty, he is friendly now and will let me scratch him but tries to nip so I tell him no and he rears on me so have had to give him a spanking to keep him from thinking that is ok! He is learning pretty quick that I am the boss and there isnt any rough housing with me around LOL!

Melinda your babies are just gorgeous - nothing better than watching the new little ones playing (and getting up to mischief!) outside.
