Hi,
Few things bring more inner joy than watching a fol born (That's what made me go for the 18th Jen got you and the horse mixed up :oops: )
I can't get photobucket to work but some of you will find her in your box...... by flash ...... in the dark taken by a zombie
She is solid colour, with a bit of a long white leg and a small blaze and she is absolutely beautiful....
Right going to go get some sleep I kinda remember that.......... Cris x

Cris, she is a little beauty! And what a great name, so appropriate.
You are a very clever girl, and a very tired one, so get plenty of rest.
How have the rest of the gang reacted to her?.........Much love.....Ange.0 -
Oh so that's what sleep feels like
Hi Julie,
Wasn't a textbook foaling just what we hoped for Now 2 more at least to go but not for a month or so...... I think June actually. Much better time to have them s this little mite arrived in a frost and I so hope the owner doesn't put her straight back...... :? xx
Hi Del,
Oh it made my night cus it was the perfect foaling and the mares had a bit of a rough time so I was a bit apprehensive....... xx
Hi Iris,
I named her the other day, their owner doesn't ever bother to name them but the names I give them stick with him too.......There was actually a foal called Mulelet last year I think as I remember Toni's kids name him? I do call his mum Mule though :oops: This one (for now) is Primrose It might change cus last had to as she wasn't a Petal but Florence suited her and now she is Flobag! xx
Hi Val,
Oh ts just a relief and so nice to not be up s much ..... kinda rewarding though xx
Hi Ton,
She isn't early, Flo looked as if she was and she is good condition as well I wonder if she will change colour...... Flo said she emailed earlier cus she didn't want a sister.......... xxx
Hi Mel,
Bless her I got a lot of horse pics, with and without foals. I will try and get photobucket to work or will pm you with an alternative. xx
Hi Ange,
She is so sweet..... walked up to me as soon as she could stand! Owns has taken herself off cus she said I don't have mine yet ad I don't want to know..... Ivy is now certain that her separation anxiety means if I go to the foal she has to put her ears back and try and stop me.... At that point Flower does the Alien line of 'Get away from her you B........! To Ivy I hasten to add And Flo well she really did say I didn't order a sister and whats it doing here! Will send some more in a bit but forgot to charge the camera :roll: xx0 -
congratulations to you i bett your tired now but there lots of work a head but ooh how wonderful new life its a brilliant time spring bouncing babys every where great news chris by the way how are you keeping? I have not spoken to you for a while.Joanne0

Hi Joane,
Nice to see you Just been down sat on the grass (its wet you know ) watching her find how to lie down and she is flat out now. She was hard to dry cus it really was cold and its nice to see her with the sun on her Her mum needs to eat but is standing guard and bless her she has done the foal proud.
I ave been sitting up with this one for the last 3 nights so very tired and its mtx night as well The crohn's has been got by the throat and is on the ropes cus the mtx has really gone after it..... now if it could do the same for the eyes and the bones I should be some happy
Oh the chicks are about to go out in their run for the first time today...... I wonder what they will make of it? Mine have aways had mums to look after them before and these are the first incubator ones I have had so i will be interesting to see how well they do out there... very I recon eh? You have a lovely day and sending ((( ))) and luv Cris xx0 -

Cris when you have time I need photos please
Julie xx((((hugs)))) n xxxxx to ya all0 -
Hi Elizabeth,
Ah she is a filly an mostly bay but she probably will lighten but still be a bright bay? He uses a coloured horse and her half or full sister is coloured but she isn't though she has 2 white legs and a blaze that is a bit too wide at the top
She is going to be a heller cus she is already too bold
I can't get photobucket to load up for me just now but at some point it will.....
Enjoy your suday and good luck with the essay. ((( ))) Cris xx0 -
Congratulations Cris
Oh lovely a filly. What a lovely gift!!!!

Hi Lynn,
She will be arriving again and looks much better by day light Hey you have a good day and they are both really well and Flo has decided she does like her sister though mum is still auditioning for Aliens ((( ))) xx
Hi Joan,
At the mo she is bay with white to her flanks on one back leg, to the knee on one front leg and given both her parents are coloured she probably wont change much though she may slightly lighten or darken..... solid colour would make her lighten but the coloured ones don't seem to change colour as much....... She is big and strong and I was a bit worried she might not be either.
Hope you and Sue are getting some sun and enjoying your selves there? ((( ))) xx
Hi Joan,
I am trying to get phtobucket to work for me..... failing at the mo..... I will drop you a pm cus there is another way you can see her. Good to have sun on her and she really is lovely xx
Hi Legs,
Oh she is going to be a heller.... she is just outside the window and cantering about her mum already. I think all newborns, and rightly so, think they are 'all that' but she is actually Flo's sister so could go heavy like she has Love and a ((( ))) Cris who must go and do some work...... in fact open the sheep salon :shock: xxx
Hi Joy,
Really nice to see you and hope your dong ok? Oh Joy she is lovely....... yo know the next best thing to your own are foster ones xx0 -
congratulations cris. a lot of relief for you after all the hared work you have done, with a beautiful result at the end of it.
wish you could get some rest now, but i bet, like all babies, she watns adn needs a lot of attention.
remember to look after yourself, so that you can look after everyone else.

OH, Cris............Primrose, what a lovely name!
..........but do hope the midwife can get some rest now! Hopefully the mare and foal will both pick up now...............the weather seems to be fairly kind over the next few days, which should help.
I've been wishing I was down there all day, just to see her sunning herself!
Annie0 -
Cris primrose is absolutely beautiful, thank you so much for sending me the photos.
Laura wants to look after her I am glad you were there to she her being born, the other two horses are the same colour of the ones Laura used to ride
she really misses ridding but to busy at the moment
give primrose a big hug from us & Laura says don't forget to hug all of them love & best wishes Sue xx0 -
