Faith is 308 days today. She is getting "the look" and bagging up. Testing the milk and the levels are changing. Looks like likely it will be a February foal.She was open last year. In 2010 she had whinnied loudly all day on a Saturday and foaled a colt around 4 a.m. on Sunday, Easter morning. I hope she repeats this year and waits until the weekend, announces all day, and lets me be there for her again.This photo was taken 3 days ago. Faith is the queen bee of the herd. She has gorgeous blue eyes and is out of the GMB line. She was bred to my blue roan stallion Memphis. I predict a blue roan filly...or a colt..or a bay roan filly...or colt.

Good morning. Sorry, I don't have marestare. I have a camera on her that is actually a visual baby monitor. I am looking at her this morning while I am having coffee. She is "doing the mare stare" with her backside up against the side of her stall.


I am working on getting some decent pictures of Memphis to post. I also need to post a close up of Faith's big blue eyes. Possibly there might be one in the members photo gallery. You can check under mine...gotta run for now and feed those hungry critters.

What a pretty girl!!! Oh yes, I hope you can get a picture of the blue eyes!! They are so pretty, I love to see the variety of the blues!

And a daddy picture would be grand!

Glad you joined us -- we just LOVE following another one!

Okay, and I'm voting for a Blue Roan FILLY like daddy! I like those blue roans -- especially if she gets the blue eyes, too.

Hello!

My name is Mackenzie! You are going to love the people here, they are so fun! Your girl is beautiful! Cant wait to see pics of daddy!

Oh what a pretty girl - thanks for bringing her here so we can share her progress with you. Love the way you said that she shouts during the day before she foals - I had a very useful stallion many years ago who would call to me as a mare started to foal, wish I had him around today!

A picture of Daddy would bee great - have you tried the ring test yet?

Hi Anna. Yes, I have done the test. F-I-L-L-Y I test with a nail on a string. In fact, I have a thread going on the main forum about testing the nail test. I am keeping stats. So far of the folks that have reported once the foal is born AND did the nail test during the pregnancy we are showing 4 reported and all 4 correct. That would be 100% correct so far. Hope ya'll post on there.

Ok, off to try to get some decent pictures of Memphis. He is actually on the pictures up above forums right now. That was last year after he shed off and looks silver. Right now he is looking black with his winter coat.
