The hen is normal size but the mare is a registered British Miniture Horse. They are only up to 34" tall so as you can imagine the foal is only about 21" now. Laughing

Oooo!!!!!!!! WELL DONE!!!!!!!! Now all we have to do is wait for Tippy to get on with it! With all these motherly hormones floating through the air, you would think she would catch on soon! Confused

To post pics here...just go to your gallery page, open the pic you want to post. Right click on the picture and copy the URL address. Then come here to post your message, click on the Img tag at the top of the window and paste the URL address inbetween the [img][ /img] (except there should not be any spaces). Wink
