And one to go...

On Tuesday, June 13th our brown female Snowmass XXXtremely Delightful delivered a medium fawn female cria. Her sire is Mr. Cash. Gestation was 371 days (what is with that this year??) and the cria was enormous. She weighed 23.4 pounds. If that's not a record for us, it's pretty darned close. The birth was a little weird. Usually, during delivery the cria's head is rather limp and kind of lolls around. Not this baby, she held it upright the entire time. It was kinda strange. There was no problem with getting her delivered and her mom passed her placenta about 1/2 hour later. The cria was up and trying to nurse within another hour. We've had some real challenges this year but this cria was easy. She is drop dead gorgeous. We are still thinking on names. Lady Hawke is about 1 week past her due date. Once she decides to grace us with her cria we will be done for awhile. We will have a big group to halter train this fall. They are very fun.
