Thanks , I put both the mare and filly outside this morning. She is trying hard to run , here trying is the key word

No Asy , no name yet , I am open to any sugestions , as long as its French " or " can be pronouced in French ......

She's adorable!

Make sure she gets A LOT of human touching in the next few weeks. Rub her down with your hands every chance you get.

Stephanie says you should call her Stephanie...

She also suggested (more seriously) Poppet.

Mind you she is a beautiful present, so I like SB's suggestion too...

I've always been amazed at the naivete of youth and the patience of age, even across species boundries.

isawlogs · « **Reply #15 on:** April 21, 2008, 08:42:52 pm »

In this case Tom it has to be naivety of the young , cause that old dog will try to befriend anything , anyone that he thinks can possibly remotely throw a ball , stick , frisby for him to go fetch ...

Bow Saw · « **Reply #23 on:** April 24, 2008, 10:32:08 pm »

Marcel & Family,
Congratulations on the darling colt!
Did I misunderstand? Are there 2 colts born recently?
Hope all continues to go well at the farm.
Mrs.BS

asy · « **Reply #24 on:** April 24, 2008, 11:18:42 pm »

Zoe is a beautiful name Marcel!!!

Bow, I suspect she's a filly...

asy

isawlogs · « **Reply #25 on:** April 25, 2008, 08:36:04 am »

Mrs Bow Saw,
Thank-you ...
Asy is correct, there is but one baby horse .

Colt, filly .... its the French in me .

She is a good looking filly, alert and doing fine , so is the mare .

Bow Saw · « **Reply #26 on:** April 26, 2008, 12:11:32 am »

So sorry, but when I saw the second caption near the photo, and I read "the other one" I assumed you had delivered twins. Well, it could happen, couldn't it? Okay, so now you've found me out......and that I'm truly ignorant about farm animals! But now, I realize "the other one" was referring to the photo. And when you wrote "both", you meant the filly & mare, not twin fillies. My apologies!
Mrs. BS

sprucebunny · « **Reply #27 on:** April 26, 2008, 10:18:09 pm »

Zoe was ~~a week~~ 6 days old this morning !!

She is SO soft and sweet !!

I visited Marcel and his family today and here is some of the group !!

Marcel, Zoe, Mousse (mama), me and Ben (grandpa)

Bow Saw · « **Reply #28 on:** April 26, 2008, 11:06:35 pm »

Neat pictures!

Keep those photos coming, I just love visuals!

It's nice to see you guys in there with Marcel's beloved pets.
Mrs. BS

Roxie · « **Reply #29 on:** April 27, 2008, 07:29:01 am »

Hi Sprucebunny! Did ya give her a hug from me?

isawlogs · « **Reply #30 on:** April 27, 2008, 09:01:23 am »

Roxie

She not only gave , but also received some

isawlogs · « **Reply #31 on:** April 28, 2008, 10:17:02 pm »

So some now know that a foal will know how to kick at eight days .

And be fairly accurate at that .

beenthere · « **Reply #32 on:** April 28, 2008, 10:26:12 pm »

So...how are ya feelin??

Able to sit up and take nourishment?

isawlogs · « **Reply #33 on:** April 28, 2008, 10:32:34 pm »

Ya !!!! Good thing I was alert

I moved over enough for her to hit me on my thy (upper leg ) and miss ringing my bells .

Havent been around colts for a while , the stoopid calves would nail ya on the shines ... these have a higher reach

beenthere · « **Reply #34 on:** April 28, 2008, 11:23:29 pm »

I REALLY beenthere.....done that..

Wish I'd a been alert like you....but the neighbor girl was a catchin my ~~eye~~ undivided attention at the time...

timberfaller390 · « **Reply #35 on:** May 01, 2008, 05:19:10 pm »

Zoé will be a month old tomorow , Boy do they grow quick

Here they are on the front lawn doing what normaly the lawn tractor would be doing with me on it

isawlogs · « **Reply #39 on:** January 11, 2009, 12:22:04 am »

I took some took the picture taker out and it took some of the filly .

She has grown some and is always glad to see us and really like to have her mane brushed .

fishpharmer · « **Reply #40 on:** January 11, 2009, 09:40:19 am »

That's a great picture, what is that white stuff on the ground?

Don't see that much here (snow).

I like the way horses get that warm and fuzzy look when it's cold.

They even do that here in MS. Right now it's 40 F, we might freeze to death. Supposed to hit 23.

That's DanG cold.

Nice horse Isaw.
