Stevie has done it again !!! This little guy has his dads gorgeous head, he is ohh so friendly and just so cute!!

lt's so hard to not want to pick him up and just carry him everywhere.

He's similarly marked to little Inca but has more white. Socks, big neck splashes and lots of loose spots

- a really well balanced foal both in conformation and beautiful markings..

Being mid winter, he is of course double rugged & boxed at night. All the creature comforts for such a special little man !

Inca is all love. Not only to look at, but she kisses and plays with me at one hour old. Her mum is the same - Tanaya, is pure love.

When the foal alarm went off, l knew this time was it. 12.30 pm - just after lunch and the alarm sounded. l gathered a clean towel, my foaling kit and headed for her paddock.

Upon entering the paddock, not far from our front door; here's my girl laying down.When she saw me - she got up and walked over to me with one foot and part of the sac hanging out.

"oohh my baby - go lie down"

'l'm here now'

She walked back to her spot under the big pine trees[ great energy ] and looked at me whilst puffing.

l patted her neck and spoke to her whilst she looked at me with those huge doey eyes. [ ln between. l was taking photos and video - no idea how to upload it to u-tube!! ]

She pushed, l stood here in total amazement at this wonderful event and this gentle loving girl sharing her most important moment with me.

At about 12.30 pm this is who came into my life..............

Testimonials ......



Bobby Testimonial...

Thank you for the time and information that you have given us - 20 July 2010

Hi
Bobby runs every where. Plays around the fruit trees and with the others
Night time he walks up like the others to be in the yards closer to the house.
He lets out a bit of noise in the morning - just to make sure I let him out with the others.
He is funny when they run he stops and listens for a while to make sure someone else is still coming.
We got your letter today. Thanks We keep records and photos of all our animals in there own books. I took some photos yesterday with Bobby out playing so I will print them and send one over. - 3 August 2010

Crystal & Jesse Testimonial... 14 Dec 2010

Hi Andy

Just thought id send you an email. Have just come in from brushing Crystal and Jesse.
I am bitten by the bug, I just love them, I must say Jesse has a special place in my heart (He is such a character)
Crystal is also very affectionate and loves her brush. Jesse is not so fond of it but tolerates me for small periods before he walks off.
Crystal is really getting quite big now and I cant wait until her foal arrives. Have you had any more yet?
Talk soon
Shane

Silverado Testimonial... 5 Feb 2010

Hi Andy

He arrived at 6am this morning. I was up at 4:30am waiting excitedly and I've been out in the paddock all morning so far. I just thought I'd come in quickly for a swim and to email you a couple of photos so you can see how he's doing. He's absolutely beautiful.

Oh my god, I've never seen anything so gorgeous in my life.

And he came up to me straight away.

Very happy right now! Michelle.

Update...1 March 2011

Hi Andy - long time, no speak.

I just thought you might like an update on how little Silverado's going...well, not so little anymore, but as beautiful as ever.

He and his little mate are doing really well. He is a very sweet, affectionate little boy. And he's grown alot. When he first arrived I was wondering why you called him Silverado because he was brown and has been up until this summer. However, when his summer coat came through, it was silver and it has a real sheen to it too. He is a really handsome little donkey.

He and Murphy (the little white donkey) play and chase each other all day and in the afternoon when it starts to cool down, they go for their daily run. They chase each other from one end of the paddock to the other and at full pelt too. It's so great to watch. He puts his head to the side, with his nose in the air and his nostrils flared.

We take them for a weekly walk over in our other paddock which is not fenced properly yet, so they love being haltered and put on the lead now because they think they're going for a little frolic (this is how we trick them into being haltered up when the farrier or vet is coming).

I just love Neddy to pieces...if you're ever up my way I'd love you come and see wonderful he is.

I've attached a picks and a little video file of their reaction to their new shelter. I hope you can open it - it's really cute.
