We have our first 2008 foal, and kind of feel it is our FIRST foal of our breeding. The closest we have before to a home bred foal was out of a mare I bought from a friend a few weeks after I let her breed that mare to the stallion we had back then. This time it was our horse x our horse, and our choice from the get go... and somethng I've been planning and dreaming about for years now
Our baby arrived at 7pm on Sunday night. We saw the mare lay down and get up a couple times on the camera and H saw the water break. By the time we RAN back to the barn the foal was already out of her and H tore the sack.
Sooooooo... we are happy to announce Whinny For Me's Dun Buckin Around, a/k/a "Ducky", a solid black colt! He stood just over 21" at birth and is very necky with a tiny pretty head, big eyes, loooong legs, and our hearts
I am so pleased with Ducky and can't hardly keep my hands off him
Ducky's been checked over by the vet and his IgG is good so we are just getting to know him and falling in love. He loves to be scratched all over but especially neck and butt scratches! He is so fun to watch on the monitor. He has been cantering around the stall and begs to differ with his name "Dun Buckin Around"! He just bucks in place and shakes his head totally and completely 17hh on the inside. I suspect he has no clue how sissified he actually looks in his blue flowered blanky since it's not dampened his a-t-t-i-t-u-d-e one bit.
Later, I will have better pictures of him. These are from just 12 hours old so not all the way unfolded and not at all filled out. But, i couldn't resist sharing the good news and the weather is calling for rainy days the next week or so and... well you know I'm no good at waiting or keeping quiet about something this good!
