He is turning one year old on April 7th. He is one very special boy. When he was foaled last year his Dam had him standing up. We believe that she tweaked a nerve in her back doing so and suffered impaction colic within a few days of Kiwi's birth. She and Kiwi spent several days in the hospital. When she recovered and we brought them home, we think she may have accidentally stepped on Kiwi in the trailer because soon developed a swelling on the right side of his face. Back to the hospital. He ended up having a fracture in his jaw and an abscess above a tooth. It started healing ok, and then he decided sand eating was fun. He impacted. Back to the hospital for the fight of his life. Ugh! Talk about a challenging start in life. He is doing great now. Still have some catching up to do in the development department, but he is a strong healthy boy. He will surely have a lot to share during his AAT career.
