ok so i go out to the barn today to check on my mare that is in foal (due in april or may) and i give her a bath and let her much some clover while she drys so i can put her back w/o her rolling in the dirt and being buddy. anyways, i walk to her flank and feel her belly, and the foal was kicking SOOOO hard, her whole side was pulsing, i guess it didn't like the pressure of the watter or domthing, i'm so excited i can't even stany it. i'm twiddling my thumbs WAITING for the lil baby to be born.... so close, yet, so far away!!! here are some pics of the mama.









and here is a pic of her b4 i got her - to show how much further allong she is

thanx - any name suggestions?

for a filly i was thinking Shakespear's Dark Lady (lady 4 short)

but i have no idea what to name it if it's a colt

Jareth is a good, strong, reliable name. I dunno what the rest of it would be... *pulls one out of my ear* Jareth's Dancing Sun? Dancing Gods' Jareth? Jareth's Flaming Malevolence?(if I ever got a stallion Fresian that's what I'd name him. )

lol i accually really like that.

i'm breeding her to the friesian stallion Romeo De Roza next - look him up, he's stunning!

How about Kieran, Kole or Oran? All basically mean "little dark one" in gaelic.

those are cute - i should have mentioned that it will be a black and white paint draft ... reaching about 16.2- 17 hands (1 hand = 4 inches)

How about Shakespeare's Measure for Measure and name him Pompey (or pompeii) or Lucio? Both were loud flamboyant fun bachelors in the play. Pompey was a clown. You know how paints are.
