omg hope all is ok! keep me informed!

Sorry to jump on this thread but Karen's mare has had a dark bay filly... They had to pull the foal off with my instructions on text, the mare is exhausted but whickering to the foal............ I am never doing this midwifery stuff again............. That is me done for this breeding lark.

Well I am impressed that Stef managed to work out how to bluetooth the pic on to here and then how to get it onto the forum!!

I like the name Flash because he is a flash little thing - well big thing really... being very dense about the milk bar though - Bambi is being a saint...

What a cracking foal to end the season with!

Paul glad to hear that the foal is out safely, the breeding business is full of too many stresses.

Congratulations Sarah on the safe arrival of the final foal, looking forward to seeing more photos when he's dried off and unfolded.

Ok so we need a name that links Sambertino and Bambi... Need to double check with stud book and find out if it has to start with a S or a B...

Suggestions so far are:

Bambertino
Bambino
Samberini

etc etc

Please get your thinking caps on!!

Going back down now to see if Flash has found the milk bar and whther Bambi ever intends to lose the placenta...

Well I have to thank Sarah too..... I have been on the phone to her all night........ I have drunk 6 cans of lager, and smoked 20 cigarettes in the last two hours........... I think I have several problems that I need to deal with............ Alcoholic............. me NAHHHHHHHHHHHH

I need sleep........... 4 Aspirin, and I will not have a hangover........

What a night.....

im dropping asleep (its stef again by the way), sars gone back down to the yard.... im on baby sitting lol, at least im warm hehe.

i have just been informed that flash is having a good drink!!!!

missed it again due to falling asleep in the chair!

What a cracking boy!!!

Off to work now

well I wimped out and went to bed once foalie was standing, so didnt see delay in feeding, placenta, etc.

Just looked this morning and as everyone says - what a stunner to end the year. Congratulations.

Like to take this opportunity to formally thank Foalcam- both for the wonderful viewing and lack of sleep.

I missed the foaling by fhalf an hr was up with Sar til midnight then went home, just got in to bed then phone went off with a picture of the little man and what a cracker he is too!!

Absolutely stunning!

Just popped in to check on progress

I'm sitting here laughing away, watching Sar teaching him to accept a foal slip. He looks pretty cheeky and obviously likes bum scratches already!

Congratulations, he looks so cute, what a fab end to this years foals!!!

Gorgeous colt

Another name with B is Bimbo, it means little boy in Italian

Or you can call him:
Bam-Bam
Bandit
Bullet
Beau
Or if you have to use a S:
Samwise Gamgee (Sam in LOTR)
Simpatico
Sahadev (means Prince in hindu)
Can´t think of any more now!
