Tatiana's Filly

 Joan's family left for Bluffton early this morning. There is a testimony tonight there from a boy from Haiti. The plus on that is she gets to see her new grand daughter. Ruth, Diane, mom and I walked but only one round. I needed to tease Jewel (she is out) then move Jewel and Madiera over to join the other 3 mares in the field.  After checking the tomato plants over well and killing 3 more of those disgusting worms I left for the DMV in Peoria to pick up another license plate for the Keystone trailer. The line was  out the door. I was about the 8th or 9 person in that line outside.  We only waited for about 10 minutes then someone came out to ask why we were in line and those of us waiting for stickers or plates were let inside to wait.  I was back home by 11:00 am. Today I wanted to work with Madiera's colt. Madiera and her colt were brought into a stall, Madiera was given some grain and the colt was haltered. He wasn't terrible for that, I think he may have remembered from that first week he was born. Today was the first day he was tied.  

He was not happy but stood pretty well as long as Madiera was in the stall. Madiera was taken out so he would react.   Madiera was just left loose, she walked outside then realized her colt wasn't following so came back inside to watch.
Below is a short video of him tied with his mom outside the stall.

It was really hot outside so once the halter was taken off they were brought into the indoor arena and hosed off. Kincade the colt was so funny. He was sprayed down as his mom was getting sprayed. He decided to lay down during that so I just stood there with the hose running and drenched him good. Too bad there was no one around to video that. 
They were put back in with the other mares.
He is getting quite tall for a not quite 2 month old colt. 
All the other mares were resting in the shade.
Stephanie sent a text that she needed tables for the garage sale tomorrow and I just happened to have 3 folding tables so loaded them up and took them to her house this afternoon. Kristin was there too as she is bringing lots of girls things for this garage sale. 
When I got home there was an email about Tatiana's filly. This filly had been sold when she was born but the buyer is not going to be able to buy her so this filly is back on the market. She is at Middle Grove so I don't have any updated pictures of her but she IS pretty special. She is 100% Friesian, her dam, Tatiana, is an Evan daughter and inherited the mega hair. 
Her sire is 16.2 hand Valiant.
She is not yet named but once named will be registered and dna'd with FHH. She isn't very old in the pictures below. Hopefully I'll get to Middle Grove to get some updated pictures soon.


This filly was born May 25th. She is for sale for $8000.00 and can be reserved with a deposit of $1000.00 then the balance due  after weaning and at pickup in October.
We picked up mom a little early for church. David had the message. We were about the last ones to leave tonight so it is late. That will be downloaded later.  A text came in from the owner of one of Ayanna's colts by Evan and he sent a picture of his grown up boy. He named him Caspian and he really is gorgeous.  I'm always happy to see updates from happy customers.
