Faux Finish foal has arrived!
My lovely Faux Finish mare had a gorgeous buckskin??? or smoky brown??? filly yesterday morning by the fabulous Oldenberg stallion - Redwine
She foaled down in PA at Hunters Peak Farm and Jill said that she is a VERY big filly, very leggy and tall with a fabulous neck and shoulder and a gorgeous dished face. Jill has seen a lot of foals born of her own and clients and when working as a vet tech and she said there isnt a thing on this filly she would like to change or see different on her - that she is a very very nice filly, so with Jill saying that - I am thrilled that she is a very special filly indeed!
Here are a few pictures of her "wet" and firstborn:
and:
and:
and a few from when she has dried out:
and:
and:
She has the 2 hind socks and the star, a thin stripe down her face and a little white snip on her nose
The verdict is still out as to whether she is buckskin or smoky brown, but we do know that we have the first and only dilute Redwine foal out there so I am really really thrilled with this gorgeous girl and am looking forward to seeing pictures of her outside, once she has unfolded ...
Any and all name suggestions would be VERY gratefully accepted! It *should* start with "R" but my sister also came forward with "Finished the Wine" which I really like and then I thought we could call her "Lush" as a barn name ...

Thanks everyone!
I think the only reason she might have sad eyes is that she left that nice warm dark place and got thrust into the bright lights where its cold and not soft and cuddley anymore!
I decided on a name for her. Going with the "R" theme and tying in the meaning of Faux Finish's name (the type of paint application done on walls) her name is going to be:
"Redecorated"
I loved it as soon as I saw it so will be submitting that name for her this week ...
Thanks for the suggestions everyone!
Nice baby same head as Mom, has sad eyes...

I absolutely love her! I bought a breeding to Redwine in 2008 to use on my GG daughter. Hopefully this year I can use it. I like the name choice.

Thanks Katie! And Redwine on your GG daughter would be an amazing cross! And then hopefully there'd be another dilute Redwine foal out there and a colt this time!

Thanks Peggy ...
Here are some pictures of "Redecorated" taken outside today. I see what Jill means about her having a simply GORGEOUS head combined with a beautiful neck and shoulder! And legs that go on forever too ...
So what do you think based on these pictures? Smoky brown or buckskin based on these outside shots???
