Update on the new horses.
Category: Getting my garden started | Posted: Mon Jun 18, 2007 8:01 pm Mimi wanted to go to the barn yesterday, and said that she would buy breakfast at a small restaurant that we both enjoy, if I accompanied her. I haven't been there for a while, and wanted to get some pictures of of the new colt (Pablo) so I went along. There are 5 newborns, ranging in age from 3 months to 2 weeks and one still yet unborne. There is also a new born Lama. Patrick, the first to be born, has lost his mom, due to a severe case of intestinal colic, which, in horses, can be fatal. Patrick was not weaned, and needed mothers milk to survive. Mimi,s Mare, (Dahlila) who had just delivered Pablo, has taken over the task, and while at first wasn't sure about the whole thing, has now become a fitting step mom. And, the two half brothers have become good buddies, they romp and play together. The barn owners have acquired a Lama and have it in with the yearling's. Lamas become protective of the horses that they are living with, and unlike horses will face attacking predators head on and often can fight off a wolf or coyotes. Anyway, the Lama turned out to be a female, and a pregnant one at that. So along with the foal's there is a young Lama. All are doing well, except that already noted, and following are some pictures of the youngsters, and Mimi's riding horse, Lady Guenevere.

It's lovely to see Pablo again and looking soooo handsome. Sorry to hear of Patrick's loss but wasn't it fortunate that Mimi was willing, and able, to rear him along with her own foal? Please keep the photographs coming as I enjoy looking at horse piccies even if I can no longer ride.
Wow Pablo sure is growing quickly! I just love his little wiskers!
Llamas are such strange looking creatures. After seeing a multitude of clips of them spitting at tv reporters etc... I be very wary to stand beside one :)
Love the nose shot of Pablo, he is a handsome fellow.
Those are really pretty horses.I like the nose shot of pablo. Login or register to leave a comment. |
