Typical day of cria hijinks

This is what a typical day of cria hijinks looks like at our farm.

The new baby, Rusty, is just trying to figure out where he fits in.

Penny, our 1 month old little girl is following the 3 month old boys around. The 3 month old boys are already up to no good: Max is practicing to be a stud boy by trying to mount his mother, while Henry has decided that chewing on his own leg might be fun.

Luc the dog ignores it all, while Rayo the yearling looks like he wants to join in on the "fun".

Ah, what can I say? Nothing is funnier than cria at play!

Please welcome Little Rusty!

Our 2009 cria season is now complete with the arrival of Juliette's cria, a 16lb healthy little boy who is an interesting fawn color with a gray face and lower legs. He is cute as can be, and we can't wait to watch his color develop to see what color he really turns out to be!

Juliette did great, birth was completely unassisted which was great since we both happened to be at work. Her delivery was the only one we missed this year, so we are thankful that she did not need any assistance.

We have also been busy with adding onto our barn and building new structures. The place is growing rapidly. By next year, we should have our farm store up and running and be ready to host events such as seminars and open houses. It should be a great year.
