Our pregnant mares are now entering the third trimester of gestation, their foetus’s will be growing rapidly and although all the mares are in fabulous condition they are in at night for a high oil supplement and a nice bed.
Here’s a recap of our foals NEW LIFE
No words LOL
Redheart Regal, Redheart Reality and Redheart Regent, despite the elements they always make you feel less guilty leaving them out when they look so happy and content!
Christmas day 2004 we entertained the “family” for lunch, about 20 of us and the food prep took a very long time, we had purchased the Cat Stevens CD and the songs played continuously.
One favorite song was (and still is) Father and Son, well some of the lyrics are just so fitting here when I see Reus talking with his son Reality…
“Just relax, take it easy”
“There’s so much you have to know”
“I was once like you are now, and I know that it’s not easy”
“But take your time, think a lot”
“Look at me, I am old, but I’m happy”
As a yearling Reality is looking rather tall against his father Reus who is 6!
Look at the height of that spotty bum!
Due to the Autumn “cold” making its way not only through my workplace but my household it finally got me… Although we prepared Regent for his début outing I resigned to the fact I just couldn’t do it!
Here are a few shots of Regent all dressed up before being unplaited and turned back out with the herd, I think he would have done well at The Royal London Show but we will never know!
