What has all the geldings so intrigued??
Yep, the foal has arrived!!
Everyone is doing well. Mom still needs to pass the afterbirth. Foal had his first poops, nursing, little bucks, lope, and is now napping in the straw.
Ranch Boy getting ready to help his mom with foal's enema, first shot, etc.....
Getting to know "Howdy" (they are so easy when they are this little...)
It's a colt, bay, born around 7:30 a.m. I will filter through the contest entries later to see if anyone guessed correctly! More details and photos to follow, the veterinarian is on his way.
UPDATE~ We have a contest winner!! Kritter Keeper at Farm Tails. I love her blog, go check it out if you haven't already!! Ranch Boy and I will begin working on the barnwood frame in the next few weeks and get it out to you!!!!

Congratulations!! What a cutie!!
Awww...the wonder of new life! It never ceases to amaze me how quickly they get up and jump around like that. Mother nature is awesome!

He is adorable!
Don't you just love them. Congrats on your pretty little guy.
Congrats to all what a little sweetie!
I love him! He is so cute. Have fun with him. They are fun but challenging!
Adorable! But what's the enema for if he already pooped?
Poor Mama. Hope she was able to shed the afterbirth. Val's Arabian had to get Vet help to remove hers when it still hadn't let loose several hours later. Val tied it in a knot to keep it from dragging on the ground.
