I haven't had a minute to rest - but I'll try and catch y'all up in case you want to know!
Baby Abbie (our day 295 preemie) has septicemia, her left hind hock is very bad. The vet flushed the joint yesterday and will again tonight. Other than being 3-legged lame, though, she's doing well... loves attention and scritches, just an adorable girl! Since her due date was May 23rd, I don't think I'll relax until after that about her, she's one of the SPECIAL ones!
Last week one of our clients mares had a lovely little pinto colt...
The rest of the mares we were beginning to think would NEVER foal, and then... Thursday Morning we had "Hank" (a client's mare):
Thursday afternoon we had "Mickey" (another client mare):
Thursday Night into Friday Morning we had "Willie" (also client mare):
and THEN... Friday mid-morning, finally one of MY mares foaled! Ginny, a maiden mare, had Abbie's brother "Dash" (Appsolutely Incredible) - sired by our Appy boy - and it's hard to match Appaloosas, but WOW, we're doing it - Abbie has to get better so I can drive these two as a pair!!!!
Here's a pic of both - Abbie on the left, Dash on the right:
More of Dash!
