Witts Mini Horse Ranch

The last few days I have been clipping my mini horse foals and started today on the yearling Jennets and did a 2 year old. My husband said do Casanova (2 month old Jack), I wanna see what he looks like. So I called him into the barn, his mom (Star) never came in there, she is ude to me playing with Casanova. It didn't take long to do the little guy with my wide blade, I didn't do from the knees down.
When Casanova was ready to go find Star, she freaked! She doesn't know him, he went to get some milk and she kicked him away, and ran from him..so then my Jack got after him and she didn't defend him!
I put them in the barn with fans on, just the 2 of them and have been checking on them, it has been 4 hours and I can tell by her bag and the way she is still kicking at him that she still has not figured it out. Casanova had tears running down his face. I let them out into a paddock alone and she is running up down the fence like she wants her baby and he is RIGHT THERE!!!!!! I have never had this happen with miniature horses. Is this a donkey thing I didn't know about?!? I did not spray anything on him so he should smell the same. I have to admit, he does not look like Casanova, I liked him better as a fuzzy wazzy, the older girls look better...but Casa was my loveable furry teddy bear.
What have I done, how do I fix it?????
