No more waiting - it's a colt

Postby Pav » Fri Mar 02, 2007 8:07 pm

The wait is over... our mare "Glory Girl" had her first foal yesterday afternoon (day 351) . It's a nice and healthy colt. I was told that Mom had somewhat of a difficult delivery (with the foal's front foot on top of his head coming out), but she is doing OK. Very excited!

Here are some pixs...
