Our Equinox foal!

Thursday Morning Ralph woke me by saying, "We've got extra legs!" In horse terms that means a foal has arrived and it looks like the mare has an extra set of legs since the new baby is sticking so close to her. I went out and here is what I saw:











A few hour later, here is what the new baby looked like - a little more alert and already growing muscle! We're calling him "Hershey" since I think he will be a chocolate grulla.
















And since I had the camera out, here is a picture of the first 2008 foal, "Bob" - he sure has grown and filled out.

First Foal of 2008!

Ziggy (aka Milagro's Smoky Glitz) has had her foal for 2008! He is a red dun colt with a star and snip, socks on the back feet and left front pastern. Big and healthy, "Bob" is doing great!
