Wow I have had a busy couple of weeks and on the road. Put about 5000 miles on last week running horses around
and we met some really nice people
I love being able to put faces with all the names.
We had a medicine hat tovero colt with two blue eys by Cinderella and Treasure at 0315 on Friday 4/11 and we left for KY and NC at 0630. He is all business this one!!
Saturday 4/12 we were in route to NC when Jessie (my 12 yr old daughter) called yelling in the phone. "Blonde is foaling, it's halfway out". I talked Jessie thru it and Blonde had a palomino filly with a blaze by Treasure our Nighthawk son. What a girl Jessie is. She calmed down and did very well. Very refined, dainty filly. I'll have to get new pics as she is filling in and doesn't look so scrawny. Her mom didn't share the meals with her. Jessie calls her Blond. She is a very sweet filly.
New picture from today
And tonight Mercedes surprised me. She had a 1/3 bag yesterday to waxed over tonight and I clipped her at 7pm with a HUGE Thunderstorm with all the bells and whistles (lightening, thunder and hail) and went into the house at 8pm after clipping 2 more (just in case). And at 9pm she foaled a GORGEOUS pinto colt, ultra refined with pretty head colt by Aloha Henry 143. With Henry going overseas there aren't alot of them and I saw a super nice colt at Lee's 2 weeks ago that was just born. I was hoping for a filly but a nice colt isn't a bad thing either
Will take pics of him in the morning and post.
I have been happy with the babies so far this year and thankful we haven't had any problems. This last little guy had his front leg in the wrong spot but once I fixed it he came flying out. And looking forward to the next couple- including another Treasure baby, a hopeful repeat STELLA (frame overo filly from last year) and of course our PRINCE baby which I really hope is a filly
because you won't be able to pry her out of my fingers.
