Friday



I can't believe its Friday again already! Springtime has a way of making the days really start to slip by quickly when you have foals on the ground and mares to get bred back.

- Avalanche!
We are getting into the thick of it now, there are eight foals on the ground for us. We have two more mares that are due in the first part of April, so we might get a short break of checking mares all night! All are doing quite well so far, and they...

- And Then There Were Three
Phone calls in the middle of the night can be unnerving to some, but this time of year for breeding and foaling operations it is just part of life- and most of the time it means new life. Margaret checked in on our two mares, Snakey and Patty last night...
