It’s A Girl!

Holly had her little filly on Saturday at 5:30 in the evening.

She laid down and the baby’s nose was sticking out, but that was it, she wasn’t coming any more.  So Dad pulled.

And then…….wa-la.

Here she is learning to stand.

She’s a little shy still.

Holly is such a good mommy.

You never run a way from your mommy, because no matter how long it takes she will catch up to you.

Holly’s Huge and Holding Out

 CIMG9415

No baby yet.

We think she will have her foal in a week or two.

The signs:  Her udder is filling a bit but there is no waxing on the nipples yet. Waxing indicates 24-48 hours to foaling.  Her back end is very itchy.
