The eldest forgotten one had her foal tonight. Scary at first...red bag delivery...which we were expecting but had hoped it would be normal.
Got him out in just over 4 minutes. He was breathing on his own...great sign.
Standard was the perfect mom. Never once questioned me helping her. Just kept looking back to be sure I had it all under control.
Her labor was an easy one. At least she made it seem that way. Munched hay then laid down and said "time for baby".
He is solid bay...not a spot of white. A bit tiny and VERY thin at first....but after his first gulps of milk got very round and heavy!
Dilon wants to call him Kirby...and Kathy wants to call him "Pops"...short for Port o Potty.....because his Mama is named after a toilet. I know for sure we want to register him as Spanish Pops. We will all laugh every time we hear his name knowing what it is short for! LOL....
Headed to the shower now...still all wet and sticky...but wanted to let you all know he arrived into the world safely. THANK GOD!
