Color Me Wild Farm

Queen completely surprised us with a beautiful bay sabino filly yesterday morning! We’ve been checking her bag daily and she showed no signs of imminent foaling! This is her 3rd foal with us and so we thought we’d know. But nope!

A storm blew threw yesterday and it snowed a couple inches. Baby was so cold. Luckily Nicole had just bought a brand new baby blanket so after toweling her off we have a baby blanket that we were able to make fit. Again, we were just so surprised! We had all been checking on the mares daily!

Then it got warm as we were standing out there and the snowy ground turned into slippery mud. We had to use a towel to help her stay up because her feet were sliding everywhere. We needed to move them asap.

I had to watch the baby while Nicole speed plowed out the round pen and put straw down. While this happened, the horse herd kind of led the baby down a steep, snowy, muddy hill. Right along the fence 🤦‍♀️

We then had to slowly lead a nervous Queen (worried about the boys, not us!) and guide the baby out with her into the round pen. And did I mention Mocha tried to steal the baby on top of everything else?! It was such a disaster.

But Queen and baby are doing so great. Everything else went picture perfect. Thankfully, it’ll be a very nice and warm week!

Heritage-eligible TWHBEA gelding, Legend, is looking for a new home. He’s about 15.1 and 6 years old. Papers in photos. He has had no health issues. He is a max sabino with one blue eye and one brown. Located just east of Denver.

He’s not officially been started but he has been ridden alone around the property a few times and he had no reaction to being ridden, just goes with it.

Pm for more info.
