MUMMY FOALED!!!
Sorry folks, haven't read any pages to 'catch up' - will have to do it in the morning as it is now 1am and I'm bushed!!
Just logging in to LB this evening (late I'm afraid) at around 10.30pm when phone went - daughter saying Mummy to foal, loose piles and restless. Off I dash and 20 minutes later I arrive to find a lively little colt doing laps round the stable and Mummy tucking into a nice warm feed! RED BAG delivery, but all ok, he was right there as soon as daughter split the bag. She knew something wasn't quite right as Mummy had several contractions without anything happening and Mummy always seems to give birth without ANY effort LOL!
So we have a chestnut colt (knew it would be chestnut and we were expecting a colt as her last two were fillies) (sire is a red dun) BUT we have signs of white hairs on his little rump (spots??) We did order and red dun with spots - so time (and a properly dry foal) will tell?
Daughter will sit up for another few hours in the lorry to make sure Mummy is ok and that the little chap has plenty of turns at the milk bar - she says she can always catch up with her sleep tomorrow! Did try for a pic for you, but it was a really bad light for my mobile, so you will just have to wait LOL!!
So COME ON PEANUT - nows your chance, and Suzie can follow tomorrow night!
Huge ((((HUGS)))) for you and Alby Renee (have sent you a pm)
Nite nite everyone - catch you all timorrow - after I have read back over the pages and seen/read all about Diane's visit.
