Star foaling (finally)



It's a girl!! She was born Friday night at about 9:00. Star was 3 hours from being pregnant for a whole year. She had a big beautiful girl. We had been putting her in the barn every night for the last month and last night was no exception. When we went to the barn at 8pm to check on her and feed her she was soaked in sweat and didn't want to eat. We were pretty sure we were going to get a baby. Made a few calls, got my towels and camera and waited for just a little while. Pretty soon her water broke and everything went pretty smooth. We helped her a little but she did all the work. We have had a lot of company here today to see the foal. We haven't named her yet but will keep all posted.

I will include a picture today but will post the birthing video soon.
