Well, honestly, I'm not holding my breath either, as my grandkids would not be happy if I stopped breathing over a waiting on a long-ears baby, but I am crossing everything!!

It's not worth turning blue and passing out. 
I got sidetracked with the trip to the vet, so missed my opportunity to hand cover Baybe, she was in for a day or two before the trip, but I've not seen Che` interested since.  Rats.

I wouldn't know, I haven't seen one yet.  She lost the only foal she had here; she came bred and slipped it the year I brought Tilly home.   And, she only has one registered foal; but I'm pretty sure she had like 4-5 before I bought her, just not all registered.

Oh, I'm thinking of another mare, I guess.  Maybe it was Mary at Target that had a Baybe or Baylee, that produced some beautiful babies.

Sorry I got confused, but this old mind, and so many horses over the years!   :-[

I had the right picture in my mind, but not the right history.  DUH!

With all the ponies in your head, it's no wonder you get mixed up occasionally.

Finally got a picture of it.   Monte's appy characteristics are manifesting in an odd manner.
Monte is a grulla with all the characteristics; dorsal, legs bars, face mask, etc.
Look what his appy is doing...

When he was a two year old, he had a crisp, clear dorsal:

No foals, last year's drought and crappy hay has mares still playing catch up with condition.

Fair enough , I know it was a cold icy winter for you, did you manage to get any much needed rain?

Im over the cold here but would be really grateful for some rain. Id hate to think what feed prices are going to be next year   ::)

My cousin just emailed me to ask if I was going to breed my two mares for next year. I was considering it, but just dont know now ..............

We had decent rain this summer, but it was often followed by heat and rain, so it didn't do as much as it could have.

That looks very unique.  Never seen anything like it.  It's not really "lacing" but it will be interesting to see what happens!  ~~Diane
