Hello it is been a while since I have been on. I've been working on fences and pastures. More babies finally started arriving 1 a week ago Friday, two Thursday morning and 1 yesterday. The mare wouldn't let the foal nurse yesterday. We held her several times throughout the day to let him nurse. He had really picked by bedtime last night. This morning he will barely put his right foot on the ground. I can't detect any swelling, and none of the joints feel feverish. His navel stump is dry and cool. He doesn't have a fever and will still nurse when his dam will stand still. Oh and he is a line bred Johnstons Goldboy grandson. He appears palomino, with bald face, blue eyes and dun stripe. Any advice or sugguestions would be appreciated. I will try to post pictures soon.
