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

[StarRidgeAcres]

Super congratulations! She looks to be perfect! And you know there is no such thing as a bad color when you've got a great horse! Mommy and daddy did you proud.

WOW!! Been so busy today could not get to my computer at all. Nearly bedtime for me but I just had to check on the girls. Popped to Missy first to see if she had settled down a bit from early this morning and......................WOW!! Not only has she settled down completely but she has a gorgeously stunning new daughter!!

Well done Missy and many congratulations Melinda - you must be over the moon!! But how on earth did those long legs cope with being enclosed in Missy's tummy - I think she must have added several inches to them during her birth LOL!!

But what a little livewire she is - does that mean she's going to take after her Momma!!

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

Its true, they are never a bad color, and I couldnt of asked for a richer cherry red! She is definitely a livewire, she was knickering almost immediately after her arrival and trying to get up before even Missy did! Now I just have to come up with a name to fit her!!! Amazingly her legs coped really well, they are perfectly straight, not weak at all, she must have had them folded perfectly LOL!

 

[Cherokee Rose]

Oh my !! Melinda she looks wonderful...cherry red like her granddam and legs like Tom. Congradulations and I missed it all. I think that live wire business comes from Tom also...ok I'll quit I'm babbling !!!

 

[dgrminis]

Congrats!! Just saw her on FB! She is very pretty!

 

[MBhorses]

congrats on your filly

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

Thanks, I am enjoying watching her loping and bucking right now, she is sooo freaking cute!!! And Carrie I agree with Tom as grandsire and Monte as the sire, there is no way this filly couldnt be leggy!!! cant wait to see her mature and get into the show ring!

 

[Eagle]

She is beautiful Melinda, thank you for sharing a pic, yes just the ONE. Not that I am complaining

:arg!

Get it sorted girl!

1.00am and she is up and feeding.

LOL well I will share more pics dont worry! Its just hard to take them when they are still wet. I didnt want to leave her blankie off too long since it was only in the 40s yesterday. Might try for some more today but wont be able to let her outside until tomorrow most likely depending on how warm it gets today and if it rains. I have been loving watching her lope around

Well, until you have a name for her, I've nick-named her "Cherry Fizz" for being such a pretty red and fiesty girl! She is just lovely, and was just standing so perfectly with Missy this morning, but now is taking her nap! AAAaaaaaawwwwwwww........such a little beauty!!

hehehe, that is pretty cute, I should have all of you guys think of some since I am drawing a blank, I have a whole list of premade names and none of them fit her!

Needs to be Maple Hollows..... Dam is Cherokee Rose Miss Never Miss and sire is Bissel Mounds Monte Carlo.....if someone can find a way to use monte's name in a classy and awesome way than go for it otherwise might not be able to use parents in the name LOL

Just saw on the Main Forum that you lost a colt prematurely last night. I'm so sorry for your loss. Which mare was it that lost the baby?

Again, I'm so sorry for your loss.

Thanks, it was one of moms that was bred to Pam's gorgeous boy, it ended up being a black blanketed colt.

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

Sorry about your losses too, it is always hard, I do prefer to lose them this way though than when they are already born and you have a bond with them but still doesnt make it much easier. And no we will most likely end up breeding her to either Echo or MT.

I moved Ellie into the foaling stall, she doesnt look ready but is a maiden and none of the other mares are looking close either and they are all good baggers! She is 327 days today. I am going to my moms to watch her mare for her today so any checks on Ellie are appreciated!

My moms mare Destiny was waxed up last night so expecting a foal soon, she is at 305 days.

 

[Eagle]

I am sorry for the loss of your mum's colt, we wait for so long and it is heart breaking if we lose them.

As for names

Maple Hollows Monte Carlo Rose.

Ellie doesn't look happy, lets hope she doesn't have a tantrum like Missy did yesterday

well not until you are home anyway

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

Eagle, I had to go back and check and I knew it, I posted two pics not one

hehehe!

Anyways to make yall happy here are a few more

Now I hope I can get some good ones sometime!!! Mom's mare is being very boring and doesnt act like she wants to give her baby up yet. She def. has a full udder but her milk hasnt turned white yet and her rear isnt very loose. Will have to see, these darn mares like to fool us as you all know!

This one you can see the white on her hips if you look closely

The funny thing is I was just thinking how boring Ellie was going to be to watch after Missy since everytime I check she is standing quietly or eating LOL

I am not a big fan of the name Rose, not sure why but it still sounded good in the twist off Eagle's name suggestion:

Maple Hollows Montes Radiant Rose

Any other suggestions?

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

I love her long legs too! Plus her neck is awesome! She does look like she will stay A sized as well, probably around 33". The red and white striped one is actually one I bought from Pond Lake Stables but it is the one I used as a pattern for the other ones.

Hopefully Ellie wont keep me waiting too long, I am dying to see her foal with MT, I am expecting TINY and AMAZING! Should have an awesome head too!

 

[Eagle]

Maple Hollows Montes Never better aka cherry fizz

 

[palsminihorses]

Are you able to rebreed your mare to Pam's boy again?

Melinda, I know you and your mom are quite a distance from us, but I would be more than happy to offer you and/or your mom a free breeding back to Smokey if you'd like. I'm just so sorry about the loss of the foal.

 

[Maple Hollow Farm]

Thanks Pam, You are such a great person!

I took some pics real quick of my lil girl so thought I would share, might take a few posts

[palsminihorses]

Gosh, she has lots of spots!! And you know she will have a lot more hiding under her hair! She is just beautiful with that 'look at me' look!

 

[bannerminis]
