Vet just left - baby is healthy, a bit small, but fine. *HE* caught Moonie (and charged me for the priviledge......:sigh:), twitched her, and the baby went to *town* on the milk bar. As of 10 minutes ago, Moonie was in the exact same spot, and baby would pop on, take a few swigs, then bounce around, come back, wash/rinse/repeat. :whew:
She's chestnut with a bright blaze (duh - that's how I saw her this AM, that white stripe glowing in the moonlight next to Moonie's back end :grin:), 4 socks - 2 long ones in front, 2 short ones in back, and a sweet attitude. I'll try to get pictures tonight, but we'll see how it goes.
I've been given orders to check on them EVERY Hour for the next few days :sigh: to make sure baby's eating. There goes MY sleep.....ah, well.
Moonie's still for sale.....but not immediately. :grin: She's a sweet mare, but not as "in your tent" as my others - and personality takes precedence over bloodlines (her's are *terrific*, old CMK to the nth degree); I prefer the "born broke" lines. We'll see if Dusty added that to the wee princess.
Oh, man - now I gotta do *2* names....We have Princess Flutterbutt...what to call this one....
happy
