I love success stories! Due to our downsizing/program ending, we sold Innishfael Kholors. She is now started under saddle and her future is bright! Thank you Eva for the photo!!!

Cloudy Summer days seem to be the best to photograph my black horses. New photo of Innishfael Nike - she and her (naughty) sister Nyx are scheduled to go into under saddle training the end of this month. Refresher for Nyx, all new for Nike :)

I am so far behind right now, but Summer makes it far easier to catch up than Winter does! Back in May, Melissa showed her Signifikaynce filly (dam is Innishfael Iselen) and they did FABULOUS ! In a double judged show, Ember unanimously placed First in Purebred and Half Arabian Halter 4 and under. Congratulations to this duo that has worked so hard, we love the updates!!!

The past two weeks have been a whirlwind. Lots of medical things for the Husband. Had a request for new photos of our rejected filly so I took some time this morning to get some new ones. I have included a photo of her outside feeder. She drinks right out of the bucket on the right and nibbles at the feed in the left bucket. The umbrella is for when the noon sun is strong and she needs a cool corner to nap in.

Innishfael Boudica (GM Targaryen x Innishfael Nyx) seems to be thriving. We bucket feed every to to three hours and she seems to be drinking more and more. Here's to progress!!!

PLEASE READ ENTIRE INFO BEFORE GIVING ME ANY ADVICE... Update on our filly born on Thursday. Her dam was a maiden, and although at first she nickered and loved the fily, it soon turned nasty. Vet called, we went through sedation (four times the normal amount) and finally had to twitch the mare for the filly to nurse. Then we milked the mare and made sure the filly got ALL the colostrum. Once that was done, we did the 'love drug' protocol, which is usually hugely successful. Not in this instance. I would hold the mare every few hours so the filly could nurse and kept this up until Friday when more help arrived for me. We tried the love drug protocol again. This time it 'seemed' successful and the mare let the filly nurse normally at least three times as we watched that evening. In the morning, the mare had a huge change of heart and started attacking the filly. I spent another day holding the mare for nursing but did have to separate them. Sunday, a friend arrived with two possible nurse mares. One that had a foal at side, but was known to let other foals nurse from her, and the other had lost a foal recently. We went through the protocols with both and neither would accept the filly. However, at the end of trying, we did try the filly on milk replacer in a bucket and SUCCESS, she drank like a champ. Five days of hardly any sleep, but we got to a point where I think we are going to make it. Now the filly has a buddy in my mini mare, Thelma and things are looking much better! Good thing this is my very last foal... oh and I did try to find goats milk without success so we went with a known milk replacer.
