Guess the Birthday and Name the Foal!
Our Valentine gal Frida is very pregnant and starting to show signs that her foal will be here soon. “Soon” in pregnant mare terms means later this afternoon or five weeks from now. We don’t know when she was bred, so we can’t really guess the impeding arrival date.…
Mabel’s Mishap
The day before she was set to be saddled at SAFE for the first time, we went out to get Mabel at her usual turn-in time and found that she had gashed her leg open. Thoroughly searching the paddock revealed no cause. We guess she decided that stall rest sounded better…
