Thanks Ladies!! I've been taking a break enjoying summer with the kids. Nothing is happening here and nothing on the baby front. Wish drops and rolls multiple times a day but she still doesn't look ready to me. Here's some photos of Wish (who never stays still very long to pose). I have a feeling Silver will have a fall baby and then RFM IM A Sweet Creation (I've named her Madeline) is due in January
Hope you are all enjoying this summer!
And just for fun one of my chihuahua, Daisy, with her BFFs, the Kune pigs.
Diane, question - if you have a stallion and the Dad was a leopard appy but the stallion is a chesnut sabino is there any chance of him siring an appy foal? Nothing going on with Wish and Silver except we are all enjoying gorgeous weather.
Does he show any appy characteristics? You're looking for sclera around the eyes, striped hooves, mottling (could be under the tail, penis, in the mouth...?). What was his dam?
Thanks Diane. He showed appy characteristics while he was shedding out (lots of spots on his hind end and legs) but then when he finished shedding out, the spots merged and he's definitely a chestnut sabino as he is on his papers. I'll have a look underneath His sire is CCMF Bad to the Bone and his dam is Coventry Lane's Foxy Lady. He's a sweetheart of a boy and has a gentle personality but I'm gelding boys and just have to make some decisions. Here's a photo.
Also ran out and took some Wish photos and here they are.
Yes, do some checking -- even inside the mouth for mottling. Remember, some don't come into their spots until they mature a bit more. He's a VERY pretty boy!
