....is this colt HUGE? Born at 1:05 this morning and he measures 42" at the withers! Colt-zilla! He is NM bred o/o a stakes mare. Owner's mare, not mine, but possib;y one of the tallest colts I have ever delivered!

He sure has some L-E-G-S. Why they go all the way from his body to the ground, only a lot more than most foals ;) Didn't Rod Stewart have a song about "legs" at some point or am I telling my age ...... He looks like a pretty nice foal!
