I suppose today is as good as any to start the foaling thread The mother-to-be is my 7 year old Oldenburg mare, Sequel, by Sir Caletto. She is in foal to my favorite horse in the world...Redwine! She is due in approx. 8 weeks. I will try to update with new pics weekly. Here are some of each of them. I am hoping for a 4 socked chestnut colt...the odds are not in my favor...lol...and I will be just as happy with a solid bay filly:wink:
Mmm, I guess a black colt with a wide blaze and one hind sock born on the fifth of May. Unless mom is homozygous agouti, then it will be a black bay instead of black
Haha I wouldn't get to excited about selling if its a her. I was looking on Redwines website and his baby's are GORGEOUS from day one. I think it will be pretty easy to get attached
I am so glad to hear and see how she is doing... Was also glad to be able to help get things figured out when you were trying to get her delivered.
Can't wait to see the baby.
I am still in your debt. You had no reason to help out a perfect stranger,but you did and my mare got home safe and sound Thank you again...I won't forget your kindness.
The foal will be registered Oldenburg as Redwine is Oldenburg approved as well. My mare is actually from Hanoverian lines (Sir Caletto) she was just registered/branded Oldenburg.
If someone has an Oldenburg inspected/approved TB mare and breeds to Redwine the foal is also eligible to be registered Oldenburg
I have no idea about crossing him with Arabs,Quarters,etc. I don't think they would be eligible for a registry...but I could be wrong? There are so many registries these days....
Warmbloods are interesting in that a single horse can be registered/approved for several different registries. One horse could be Dutch Warmblood,Oldenburg,Hanoverian,and registered/approved.. It just depends on where you want them inspected/registered.
My Selle Francais mare is registered Selle Francais,Oldenburg,and even Rheinland Pfal-Zaar.
My Hanoverian/TB is registered Rheinland and will be inspected for Oldenburg this summer.
Wow that sounds complicated. Haha I don't wanna hjack your thread so I'll save my gazillion questions for trusty ole google Still cant get over this lovely pair!!!
Just a little update My vet came out today to give Sequel her 9 month Rhino shots and check her over. Many of you were concerned about her weight due to previous thread ( http://www.horseforum.com/horse-breeding/preggo-mares-weight-116024/ ) but my vet said she looks completely normal and is at a good weight for how far along she is. She said the baby is big and the mare's belly is pulling so hard down and her muscles are so tight that it is pulling the skin over the ribs really taut. But her feeding schedule is just fine. Sequel is doing great,baby is doing great! Was going to do an ultrasound,but the barn power got knocked out from a storm last night Will update with new pics soon!
Ah...I have been so crazy busy lately! I will definitely try to get new pics tomorrow. We have been having nasty,nasty rain storms I hope this all clears up before baby comes Earliest he/she could come is in about 4 weeks according to vet's estimations
Thanks for reminding me!
