This picture was taken right after birth. Isn't he ADORABLE! We can't believe how big he is. He has cute tipped in ears that almost meet in the middle. He is going to make someone a a great horse and could be a fantastic herd stallion. He is very sweet and gentle and already wants to please. He is for sale at weaning for $4500.00 and can be reserved now with a $500.00 deposit, and payments until weaning in September.
We actually got a lot accomplished tonight. Mike cleaned out one of the sheds with the excavator, Steven saddled and got on Aries and I lead him around. He is actually coming along very well. Aries accepted the weight, would back on command and turn. We don't yet have a bit in his mouth, his wolf teeth have not been removed but he is working well with a halter. Mark was using the skid steer with the tree removal attachment, then started chain sawing the trees he took down. Mark is reclaiming our hay field.
We tried the mare that arrived for breeding but she is not in season. I think she will be sonagramed tomorrow also to find out if she is due to come in or should she be short cycled. Lily was covered so I'll mark her down. Sangria is so big but she is not bagging up yet. I guess I'll have to talk to Dr. Hoerr about that also.
Tomorrow Dr. Hoerr is coming any way for sonagrams, teeth and more coggins.
