Unforgettable Theme #343

Posted in Photography on September 6, 2011 by paintedmeadows

I’m posting twice today since I missed yesterday.  I always find a new birth on our farm unforgettable.  This is my miniature mare Peach and her new filly.  We are still working on names for her.  This is the last birth for the year.  I got lucky this year.  I had two tough births but was blessed with two fillies!  Can’t complain about that.  We also have 2 new chicks that I will share pictures of later.

 

 

 

Ultimate Thrill Theme #340

Posted in Photography on September 6, 2011 by paintedmeadows

On Sunday morning my mare, Peach foaled a beautiful filly!  The little filly was trying to come out with only one hoof and her nose.  The other hoof was stuck behind the pelvic rim so I had to push the filly back in, find the other hoof, pull it up over the rim and then I helped the foal out since Peach was super tired by this time.  It was an Ultimate Thrill for me to be there to help her out, I’m not sure she could have done it on her own.
