BABY NUMBER 5.....

Has finally arrived! A beautiful little silver dapple filly, this was taken probably no more than 5 minutes after her arrival - its not a fantastic photo, but it shows how good a mum the mare is.

Skye, her mum has had one baby before, and it was a difficult foaling, so we have been camping out to make sure nothing happens. However, it seems that fuss wasn't necessary - she managed to foal without us, in a half hour window between checks this morning...

Poor Baby Number 5 has no name yet, and because she's a filly we need a REALLY nice name - one for showing and one for the paddock, so any suggestions are welcomed.
We have a few ideas, but none sit quite right yet...

No Doubt the next few days will have more blips of baby number 5...
