Good morning, Bob is hobbling around with my knee brace on :) It's supporting his knee enough to walk so I think it's just twisted. He's trailer a mare to the vet this morning for a pregnancy check.

The foaling started with just the nose showing - no feet showing. We got Dusty up and Bob reached in and got one foot up beside the head. The other was bent back at the knee and she was born that way. Rough night for momma.

Everyone is fine this morning. I'm still waiting for a call from my vet - my DIL tells me he's moved to Sacramento and is working from there. When I reach him first question will be who's covering your patients here? If I had needed him last night I'd have been in big trouble.

TE Dusty Jax may have a barn name of Speed. She's been running circles around her mom in the stall since she got up. Her sire is a loud bay leopard horse but obviously he doesn't throw color. This little girl is his first foal. He's off a Doc O'Lena AQHA mare and she kinda looks like grandma.

Hair - more pictures later today :)

There is so much mystery in Appy color. It defies logic!

I like "Speed"... but you won't sell her has a child's mount with that name... 'cept to maybe a barrel racer ;~D
