Born 4am this morning, after quite a bit of help Piper finally gave us a very leggy chestnut & white colt.
Calekio Painted Whirlwind aka Twister. Mum and baby doing well now, although mum is understandable shattered after a hard delievery. Twister is already shaping up to be a little 'whirlwind'... bucking his heels up at us at less than 30 minutes old whilst mum was struggling to get back to her feet.
Finally... i can sleep peacefully knowing all my mares have foaled safely and and i have 3 healthy little babies.
Better photos to come after he's strightened out, and still very very bent! lol Also apologies for the very bloody photo of piper.. hadn't got chance to clean her up yet without being kicked across the stable.. and she had quite a problem getting the little lad out.
Mummy greeting her new baby
Get up mum!
I'm cute... and i know it!
