Three mares. 2 Duns and 1 Bay. One of the duns and the bay already have foals. The other dun is due to foal any day now. So, that makes two babies on the way! Very Happy

2 Tennessee Walkers should be arriving in a couple weeks. Then the farm is full to capacity. Shocked

Pics will be coming soon...I promise. Wink

maybe it is, but just think they have good useful hobbies, not like a lot of younger people seem to have if you listen to the radio. Give yourself a pat on the back, I say

They are usually dark bay in color. They tend to stand about 16 hands tall. They are 'delicate' looking in build. They have a very high deliberate gait. When ridden, you do not bounce around on them, they are very smooth in their trots and gallops. It is just very inspiring to watch them move. Wink

News for the rest....no new foals yet. Although, Tippy (the first mare to arrive) has started bagging up pretty good now, but hasn't started waxing yet, so there will be a couple days to wait yet. Confused

Now that the weather is going to hold. I will try and get pics on my lunch today and post them before about 8pm your time.

Sally, you have lost me. That's not hard to do with my sleep deprivation. Wink

What are you asking more information on?
