FINALLY - PHOTOS OF VADER AND DAMIEN

Postby clh » Sat Aug 22, 2009 5:17 pm

Took me a while and these aren't the best shots since I "hobbled" down to the field but here are the boys:

Vader, by Invasor out of Allou

Damien, by Tueflesburg out of Laird's Honor (if he looks a bit off it is because he has a hoof abcess and is wrapped)

Only a month difference in their ages but this photo really shows the size difference in the two.

Wow great looking babies. Vader looks great, but Damien looks like he's going to be a very nice colt too. Does Vader look out for Damien? The last photo make it seem like he does.

Thanks guys for the nice comments. Like I said, not the best shots of the boys but at least I got something up.

And Madelyn - thanks about the fence - it is especially nice when you see the mares, yearlings and foals go around chewing the hell out of it - not cribbing - just chewing. And it is so wonderful when it is time to stain it (since I have done it twice since we've had it up :( )

VERY handsome boys!
