Presenting our third 2011 foal...

[High Meadow Miniatures]

It's a colt!

Foaled on April Fools Day, at roughly 358 days gestation...Finally decided to make his arrival. Better late than never

Sired by Boones Buckeroo Too Grand Slam, our 32.5" AMHA/AMHR bay dun BTU son, and out of Running Creeks Champaign Ice, our 30.5" AMHA/AMHR smokey cream Double Destiny grandaughter.

This colt is a BTU grandson with six crosses to Buckeroo, and everything we had hoped for. He is either a buckskin or dunskin (opinions welcome), and though very fuzzy, he is very leggy and I am looking forward to getting him clipped next month. His registered name has not yet been decided...Any suggestions would be great.

On a sad note however, our other mare, Dazzle, lost her colt the day after this colt was born. The sire was Blue Stars Hotrod Harley, and the foal was a ultra refined silver grullo colt

But we are so thankful to have these three beautiful, healthy foals on the ground

[WhiteTailsMinis]

congratulations on your handsome new boy - despite the colorful iodine all over LOL Don't you just love it? LOL

He's certainly well worth the wait - you know how we like our Buckeroo horses here - he's just what we'd order too! Congrats!

Born on April Fools Day would have me playing with that idea somewhere in his name ................

 

[High Meadow Miniatures]

Thanks everyone

And White Tails - I did consider the name "Dun Foolin" since he is an April Fools baby, and so over-due to top it off....Though if he is not dun, that name won't fit quite so well
