Dinah is 18 this year. She's had 9 foals... COLTS! Beautiful colts. So we expected another colt...right?
I went to dip the unbilical and I always tell myself to be caurful to not dip the boy part. And I'm down there and CAN'T FIND THE BOY PART! I thought, it's retracted I bet we have to get the vet out on this one! Then I see these 2 little 'things'! OMG! I look 3 times and even feel of them to be sure. Then Frank says are you sure? I say look under the tail and tell me what you see. LOL Neither of us believed it at first LOL
I had decided that this would be Dinah's last foal. She deserves a retirement. I'm not sure how we will manage that though because she looooves the babies and will try to steal new ones if she doesn't have one.
I just can't believe it. All these years and I've begged her for a daughter just like her! So here she is and we don't even have a name! When Dr Johnston did the IGG he asked her name for their records. I had to say she doesn't have one! What should we name her? She is unbelieveably special to us as is her mother....our first and forever mini. Has to have 'Star' in it for her sire. I can't think of a thing!
I'm going to have to sit on Frank. He'a already talking Liberty class like her mom. Good grief! Not even 2 days old yet!

Oh, I forgot... color? What color is she? I thought black when she was wet, but now she's very tanish. more than shows up in the picture. A sooty buckskin? Mom is palomino and dad black. She doesn't look like any other black foal I've had.
