we were surprised at the size. yes molly took a few hours to get back to her normal self. the pictures were taken very shortly after the birth. she still had the afterbirth to come out. having seen ruth post 6 births nobody looks good after giving birth.

It turns out our little filly foal is a big strapping colt. Rachel who wants to be a vet needs a little more practice at anatomy. poor lad being called bella.

It isn't easy to see what gender a foal is when the mum tries to kill you if you go up to   the hfoal and then runs of with the baby.

prince seems to want to be a show jumper. he jumped the fence into the chicken field. that bit of fence is now 4ft high if he clears that at a week old we may have trouble ahead.
