How many new foals are expected from forum members this year, and when are they arriving? Please post pics once they hit the ground!

We're expecting (hoping for) six: three in February, one in March, one in April, and one in May.

Best of foaling luck to everyone else who's expecting!

Congrats to all of you! We have two coming, both by Grindstone. One in March and the other in May. Hopefully we all have uneventful foaling seasons

I love this time of year as well!! Nice line up there LB. One of my mares is by MTR, and she is such a doll. Throws beautiful babies, however it remains to be seen if they can run :wink:

Her 2 yo colt is at the training farm, and looking good thus far. Time will tell...

Do you sell your babies, or race them yourselves?

We sell most of ours, but we usually keep one from each crop to race.

I love More Than Ready. This is the second time we've bred to him. The first one just turned 4 and is currently racing in Dubai. Best of luck with your 2 year old!

My goodness Madelyn! You will not be getting any sleep this foaling season..there sure is not many days between due dates.

Best of luck to everyone, thanks for responding, and don't forget pics! Even I was able to figure out how to do that

, so if I can do it, anyone can

Yes but it will all be over for me in a couple of weeks!! I actually worked to get it done like that so the babies will all be so close in age and easier to manage healthwise, pasturewise, etc.

Very clever of you! Good luck to you and everyone else in this foaling season!
