The Foals
The Foals
The foals are the culmination of all of the hopes and dreams that weave in and out of our minds each year. One of the most glorious scenes, and what I look forward to more than anything, are the newborn foals frolicking in the pasture in the early morning dew.
The late nights waiting in anticipation for the moment when that momma, heavy in foal, finally lays down to push that baby out......the moment when that brand new little life is laying soaking wet in your lap taking its first breaths.....when that little bundle makes its first attempts at getting those amazingly long legs to cooperate......the tiny velvety muzzle exploring your face for the first time. These moments are some of the most precious times here on the farm and never lose their magic.
Every year during foaling season, we have foaling cams up in each of the two foaling stalls on the farm. A link to this cam will be posted as foaling times near. Please click on the link when it is posted to take a little peak into some of the most precious moments on the farm as they happen. Foaling in 2010 will start in April.
