Yesterday Ribbon broke down a fence to get to Raven so we knew she was in season. We fixed the gate she smashed through and got her covered by Raven our Friesian stallion, then as it is not yet our busy season we left Ribbon in with Raven. He was so happy for the company. Today I went out early to work on fencing and as I drove up I could see both Ribbon and Raven lying side by side in the hay. Cute! Ribbon is our vaulting horse and we did not breed her after she delivered her filly last year because of her vaulting performances. If she would settle now, she would deliver the end of January 2010. That would work out well for the March IL Horse Fair. We would take the foal to Springfield with us. Last fall we took her filly, Princess, to the Northern IL Horse Fest and she was the star of the show. She loved the attention and was very well behaved while her mom was performing. Princess was pretty fabulous so we sure hope Ribbon will settle quickly.
