Drat! Missed it again but it looks like everything went ok. ---

Ha! First attempt to get up! Didn’t get anywhere, but that’s a vigorous baby. ETA: Big blaze! ---

Must be a first time mom. Doesn’t know what to do with the baby. ---

Yes, she’s a maiden. She spent a fair amount of the delivery on her feet at first, didn’t know what the heck was going on. ETA: Looks like she’s figured out the licking part. ---

I’m going to guess filly, with absolutely no evidence for it. 😃 ETA: Well, I had a 50/50 chance to get it right and I blew it – just posted it’s a colt on the Mare Stare board. ---

Poor boy, he keeps trying but he can’t quite make it all the way to his feet. Woops – almost made it that time. ETA: Up at last. ---

Huh – Atiya may be a maiden mom but she’s being awfully good about positioning herself for baby to get that first drink. In between bouts of pacing, that is. ---

Someone’s gonna have to explain the whole nursing thing to her. ---

And him. ETA: So, do we finally have latch on? ---

I don’t like the way she keeps turning her butt to him when he approaches. ETA: Now they’ve put the lead rope back on her and have her eating grain while the man tries to get the colt latched on. OY! I think he tried to take the teat – she just damn near cowkicked him. ---

Crap. Looks like every time he actually touches her udder she freaks and kicks out. Now they’re twitching her. And she still erupted when he tried to nurse. ---

She’s still not letting him nurse. She still jumps and he jumps back whenever he tries to take a teat. He’s trying and she’s not helping at all. ETA: In fact, she’s not even particularly interested in him, it seems to me. Crap – threatened to kick again. I wonder if they have any hobbles? ---

This just posted on the Mare Stare board by the MC people: “Yup, Tiya is not being very agreeable…vet is on her way to help ensure baby gets some of that first milk.” ---

No kidding. I’m afraid she’s actually going to flat-out kick him soon because he’s not going to stop trying to nurse and she’s not having it. ---
