Website says they breed Knabstruppers. That breed originated form Spanish blood. That site mentions the introduction of American Appaloosa blood at one point:
And while we’re waiting for all these mares to pop, guess who’s got another broodie on MareStare? Why, it’s our old friends the Witts! The ones who got us started on this madness.
Right now the cam isn’t showing anything but the MareStare logo, but there’s no mention of a foal from Dream on their website, so…
Two women are in with Moka, cleaning her legs, grooming her, and checking under her tail. Ha! She just stepped forward to make sure they worked on her butt.
ETA: Now they’ve left and she followed them to the door: “Hey, come back, I want more.”
She’s holding her tail out, looks uncomfortable.
Wow, Barry really is a little man!
Hmmm, there’s a Low Alert on the Pacific Pintos webcam but they don’t say for whom. They’re only showing China now and her sides had that whole Alien thing happening (you know, the scene where the monster pops out of the guy’s stomach) for a couple of minutes. She doesn’t look too uncomfortable though so I’m not sure what’s going on.
ETA: And, yes, her stall is full of poop.
Now she’s trying to kick her belly with her front feet and is staring back at her butt. Could it possibly be…???
Nah.
There’s a woman in the stall with Moka again checking her status and cleaning the stall. I think they’ve cleaned the stall about every hour there.
I am in love with Uphoria.
[sigh]
We should send them to China’s stall…
Naw, that would be cruel.
Meanwhile, at Silver Creek Farm, a guy was just in LaDeDa’s stall cleaning it, then he came over to her, skritched her, and checked her bag. LDD wasn’t too thrilled about the bag-checking but held still for it.
Nothing happening with China (only one on cam at Pacific now) and Moka.
ETA: Interesting: LDD at Silver Creek is on what looks like sand bedding (maybe very sawdusty shavings?) while Athena is on what looks like straw or hay.
Dammit I missed it!!! China foaled!!! It’s a baldfaced wee baby!
Damn, must have been a fast birth; I was only away about 15-20 minutes.
I missed it too!
What a wee little sprawly thing
I’m predicting it’s a girl
I shall call her Mulan, daughter of China.
It’s a colt.
DAMMIT!!! I’ve been watching her all day too! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
What a cute little munchkin - has she been up yet?
He’s already tried, and collapsed into a froggy split.
Hey, finally one that doesn’t have a star. Call him Baldy?
Name him Poops!
He should have a Chinese name. What is baldy in Chinese?
China seems more interested in the food than the baby. Has she foaled before?
