Ronja 8 days old

Just a few pics of Ronja taken last Sunday - she is 8 days old in these pictures.
Her DNA results came back last night and it seems we have another little pearl in our herd - she has inherited the pearl gene from her daddy Camella Boy Warrior! :)
I`ll attach her coat colour results here....
Red-Factor Result:
e/e - Only the red factor detected. Basic color is sorrel or chestnut in the absence of other modifying genes.

Agouti Result:
A/a - Black pigment distributed in points pattern. Basic color is bay or brown in the absence of other modifying genes.

Cream Result:
N/N - No evidence for the Cream dilution altered sequence detected. Basic color is sorrel or chestnut, bay or black in the absence of other modifying genes.

Pearl Result:
N/Prl - One copy of the altered sequence detected. If Cream dilution is also present, a pseudo-double Cream dilute phenotype will result.

Victor meeting the ladies...

Last Sunday Victor had his first meeting with some of his girlfriends for the summer.
Irina, Lilo and Rose are the first lucky girls to get a date with this casanova.
Victor him self is a young gentle man and takes good care of his ladies....
And in the pics below, you can see his first meeting with Rose and her daugther Jade (she is such a doll this filly - the cutest ever :)
We are crossing our fingers for some special silver babies next summer ;)

Lilo and Irina are very curious about the newcomers....
Take a look at this little cutie pie -
she reminds me of a childrens rocking horse :)
Victor strutting his stuff - trying to impress the girls...

Irina has grown into a nice young filly.

Rianna

Rianna is growing too. 9 days old in these photos. DNA on her color is on it's way to the USA. My guess is bay and pearl. Anyhow - she will stay here at the farm, as a future breeding mare.

Jade

Jade is 10 days old aleready!! We have beautyfull spring wether today - so I just had to snap som fresh photos of her. And I have to tell - I've been really good. She is already arranged sold - and will go to her new family when she is old enough. (And It's a good thing, because I've alredy started to think that she is a keeper kind of horse.. and my little tutch of common sense tells me I cant keep them all!)

Ronja

Finally!!!!
Nancy had her first filly foal!
Ever since we got here in 2004, she has only given us colt foals - but last night she gave birth to a big and strong filly!!! :)
And the filly - she is just a little beauty - chestnut and white - and Camella Boy (Corny) being her father - I`m a little unsure if she might carry the pearl gene as well...like Mona I have to do an DNA test ;)
And here are the first pictures of little Ronja - 14 hours old in these photos.

It took a few minutes before she figured out how to work her feet...trying them out for the first time.




Check out her cute tail - red and white...

Rianna

Last night Eliza had her foal. Another filly!!!

She is a lot larger than Jade - Eliza had a hard time getting her out. I had to help her pulling the foals legs. Mum and baby is happy and ok now.
I'm a bit confused about her color. Sired by Corny I think she migth be a buckskin. I'll have to do a DNA test.
This little girl is the first one born in Norway with known - proved pedegree all back to her great gran mother Netta!! Netta - Nelly - Eliza and Rianna

The first 2009 foal!!!!

Finaly!!!! Last night Rose had her first foal. I was expecting a black colt - the supprice was perfect. A red tiny, tiny filly. She is so incredible calm and trusty already.I just love her facial drawings. I've named her Vestlandsbandens Jade.
This little girl also has a good pedigre. Her mum Rose is sired by Herkules, dam Lone. And offcourse dad Ickie, the best premied stallion in Norway, out of excelent English breeding lines.
She is 15 houers old in these photos.











Terrible photo wether today, Ill take some new ones soon.
Oh, and... yes, she is for sale. I've decided to sell off all my foals this year. (Oki, I know I sad that last year to... and ended up keeping all my fillies.) I believe she is for sale;)
