Babies, Babies, and More Babies

We have really had a great time this year with the foals we have here on the farm. They are all growing so fast. We allow our mares to foal outside, so it is like hunting Easter eggs in the morning.:o) This year however, has been a little different. I don't know if it was the cool spring, the rain we are having now or what, but we are having a lot of our foals being born in the day. Lucky for us, because today was the first time in all the years I have been around horses to see a mare foal from beginning to the end result. We always try to give them their space, so we don't stay up and wait for them, and loose much needed sleep. I was able to capture the whole thing on video, so hopefully tomorrow I will be able to edit it and get it on youtube for everyone to see. I have put together a small slide show of a few of our weanlings, I don't seem to be able to upload it onto the blog. But, you can go to our website, www.vanbertfarms.com go to the weanling page and you can view it from there. Some people are telling me the music is a little strange on their computers, mine is fine, but I will look into that. Enjoy!
