Jane foaled!!!

Postby Mood Swings » Sun Apr 08, 2007 3:58 pm

Yeahhh :D An Easter miracle! So far so good, she was born at 6:30 am and is getting up on her own and nursing vigorously. The placenta has large brown spot and she was born with a very slick coat (like a premie). However she is quite large (138lbs). The vet will see us tomorrow so hopefully she just continues to get stronger. I am elated! :D

How about

Easter Candy Baby

(okay yes, it was the name of my first hunter who I rode when I was 11 but this filly is her twin!)

Thanks! She is freakin adorable, sweet and FEISTY at the same time, she is a fighter just for being alive :) She is by Van Nistelrooy.
Now Jane is sick :( She may have metritis due to the infected placenta. She is like a walking pin cusion - poor girl. She is an excellent mom and is handling everything very well therefore I know she will be fine.
