Our First Foal for 2008

[Reble]

Friend asked me to go for breakfast about 30 minutes away.

To get away with all this water we have been having. Our creek and pond look like one big Lake.

The thunder storm really was something last night. Courtneys due date was:

Not a full udder, no signs when I Left at 10:00 home around noon, joking with my friend telling her going to the barn to see my new baby,

sure enough she leaves and yes went into the house checked the camera and oh my goodness baby in the barn.

Filly

Any suggestions on a name: Kavelbel _________________Fourteen

How about Lucky Fourteen??

He's a cutie for sure!

 

[MBhorses]

aw

she is a doll.

what are the sire and dam names?

 

[Magic]

I like Keri's suggestion, Lucky Fourteen sounds great! Congratulations!

Btw, for minis I figure my gestation dates differently:

Earliest Date: 290 to 300

Early Date: 300 to 320 days

Avg Date: 321 to 332 days

Almost Overcooked: anything later than 333

Yeah, I've had mares go 350 days, but VERY rarely. My first two of this year were 313 days and 320 days, and that is not unusual. I just want to let it be known to those that aren't familiar with miniature gestations that MUCH earlier gestations are common for minis so they can be aware and ready.
