So now that the March babies have all safely arrived, it is time to take a look at Buffy and Carmel. They are both fast approaching 8 months gestation. Both are of very nice weight, a little pudge is nice on a pregnant mare and are very healthy. Wont be long before we will be seeing their precious little one too.
Meanwhile my 2 year old stallion, is chomping at the bit to be allowed to 'visit' with the girls. So I am setting April aside for him and the March foaling mares to have some alone time. He's new to the game, so should be interesting to see if he has any success.

Way overdue for updates.
It's been so busy foaling out the 3 mares and getting the little ones used to our usual barn routines that I have slipped up a bit on updating the blog. So here are pictures of the little ones.
The first one is Blossom our pinto princess. She is around 23 inches and will finish up at 34 or a bit better in height.
The second picture is of Hat Trick, a black colt. 19 inches at birth, will finish up around 31 inches.
Next picture is Terre, he was 22.5 inches so will end up under 34 most likely around 33.
All foals are double registered and the colts will be for sale. I will keep Blossom until Buffy and Carmel have their foals and then I will decide who I will keep.

1 down, 3 to go for March
Well Marcella's milk tested positive at 10pm on March 1st. By 12am she was down and pushing. Foaled out a lovely long legged little colt - Huybers Utopia Prince Charming, at 1212am March 2nd. He's good and healthy and has two descended testicles. Can't ask for more than that.
Now for a filly..... I continue to wait.
