2013 Foal Announcements! Let's see those babies!

Hi Tangalle. Welcome to COTH, it’s always nice to have someone from NZ drop in :slight_smile:

Yes the black filly is very beautiful. She has real presence. I’m sure I will enjoy showing her next season. The Prestige VDL colt foal is sold already. The Furst Nymphenburg colt is the real deal though - he travels above the ground!

I will update those photobucket pictures…

Ok I’ll jump in the train :slight_smile: Here’s our first foal (a filly!) of the season, the other is still in the oven (not for long!)

She is Fidertanz x SPS Destemona by De Niro. We named her Felizitas EdA and this name means “good fortune” :slight_smile:

She is 2 weeks old:

Oh my spike, that’s just lovely!

Success! My mare, D. Stay Tuned, made it through her plancentitis and foaled a beautiful chestnut Wild Dance foal at 317 days. Wiglaf ASH was a bit small at birth and needed a bit of help but he came home today and at 10 days old is quite the little character. We love him.

What a cutie, Fourbeats! Congratulations.

Thanks Kerole! I can’t wait to do the 3 week-old photo shoot. She is developping so well!

I took the time to review the whole tread (thread??) and there are some seriously GORGEOUS foals here!!!

A little change of scenery from the warmbloods… We had a appaloosa cross foal by Waps Rolls Royce out of an app trakhener cross mare. We just love his white topped ears. We don’t have a name for him yet so if anyone has any ideas…
Hopefully this link works

Our newest addition was born last night! Here is Newcastle NHF “Rook” by Balt’Amour out of Walkabout (Aram/Gondelier). We are simply thrilled with him!

Hotpink - squeeee!!! those ears!!! You certainly hit the color jackpot!

Northill - so very nice! Love the white :slight_smile:

My mare A Little Romancze // (Alla Czar out of a Schoenfeld mare) delivered a perfect Bon Balou colt on Tuesday at the respectable time of 7:20am! He is dark bay like mom, 4 whites, a star and snip. Named him Bonaducci, barn name Danny!

Hotpink, why can’t I see the pics? i wanna see those ears!

Hotpink…he’s VERY cute!!!

Just got the sales video from Hilltop for my filly Rhea! She is looking really special. I bred her to sell and am making myself stick to that…but really love her look…must not get attached :slight_smile: I’m repeating this cross for sure!

HotPink - I needed to remove the m. from before the facebook and now thie link works. SQUEEEE from me too!! OMG that is so cool. He is half chestnut and half white. And those ears…! I want a foal with those ears!! Forgive me for sounding a bit dim, but are white ears very usual in appaloosas? Will the chestnut stay clear or will roan out and blend with the white ears?

I def want more photos as this chap grows please!

Bornfree - that filly is lovely. Love the forearm mechanics. I can see why you are tempted to keep her. Very nice indeed.

I just got some pictures of Ares. He’s going to grey out. I’m flying down to see him in two weeks for my b-day present. I missed his foaling and this will be my first time meeting him.

I am told he has the sweetest puppy dog personality, brave, and very smart. He loves to jump the ground poles in the paddock and is independent.

He’s by Holsteiner Alexander P ( by Alcatraz) out of my Hanoverian mare Heart of Gold (by Fuerst Greyheart). His show name will be Wildheart to keep with the Braveheart Farms theme :slight_smile:

He’s two months in these photos.

OMG Nikki that’s a lot of bone! That’s gonna be quite a lot of horse when he grows up. :slight_smile:

We got a beautiful filly by Flake (Florencio Metternich) out of a Amidou (Alcatraz Langata Express xx) Ordos xx mare tonight!!
Very excited!!

Manni01 - you can’t post that info without pictures!! Not fair :slight_smile:

He’s going to be a good size. I bred him to a my AA and A/O jumper and by golly he’s everything I asked for and more. :smiley:

OOOOOH, Spike! She’s gorgeous! I just love your horses! If there were a horse breeding equivalent to Fantasy Baseball, my fantasy team would look like your breeding program.

I like the dog too! Looks just like mine. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1179553134679&set=pb.1403673853.-2207520000.1370222097.&type=3&theater
