I don't want to bring her here until I know she is ready, Britt doesn't care about being alone or away from her friends but Odette goes nuts so I want to avoid any possible danger and keep her stay here as short as possible. Also because I am having serious trouble getting Britt back out in the field cos she charges off and leaves Merlin behind so at the moment she is being held whilst out grazing. I think it is cos she spent such a long time away now she just wants to blow off some steam but it isn't good for little Merlin. Anna it is just as you explain to all the newbies about keeping the mare closed in for a long period.
Here are some pics I took this morning and I am downloading a very cute video for you all too
Oh bless her, what a good girl Biccy is to let those pesky pups use her as a moving furry blanket to play with!! LOL!! I'm sure that Izzy is very pleased to have the help of a babysitter with that lively lot to care for!
Cant believe how much those pups have grown - they are gorgeous Renee. How did the little backward boy progress, did he 'catch up' in the end?
will she be so kind as to foal whilst my parents are here so they can have the kids???? I turned her out with Britt and Merlin today and I knew that would wake her up, she loves to foal outside with the others
she was an angel with Merlin, he kept getting confused and trying to feed from her but she gently pushed him away
I love this mare, she is worth her weight in gold.
Hey renee! Sorry I haven't been around much the past couple days!
I just had to pop in and let everyone know I'm alive and my horses are doin great- and to check on you, eagle, the pups, britt & Merlin! Glad everyone is doing great- and it looks and sounds like we aren't far off from seeing Odettes beautiful blue filly
Renee, thank you so much for that video it was gorgeous! Bicky is such a special little girl! I just love how she layed down on her side for them what a treasure.
ooooh have you got a new foal yet? sounds like she is close!! so wish we could watch again!
can't wait to see her beautiful little foal! safe foaling Odette when you go!! and make sure you do it when mummy is there please! so she can help
I rushed down to the barn this morning at 6.00am to see what Odette had been up to during the night, her milk test has dropped and this was her udder! I think she will foal before the weekend.
Yes it will be another Eagle baby. 2 years ago they had a gorgeous black minimal pinto colt. I expect something similar but as long as it is a filly I will be happy.
