Hailee is in Foal!!


Barbie called me this evening and had the most wonderful news! Hailee is in foal! Dr. Burns gave her a check-up today and reported that he is confident that she's expecting. The foal is the right size given the number of days gestation. Hailee seems unremarkably routine! So, she will be checked again in a few weeks just to make sure she hasn't reabsorbed the egg, but things just look terrific. Thank you, Barbie and Tom, for your expertise and care with Hailee and to Dr. Burns for his unique talent at tracking and monitoring fast-cycling, small-follicled mares! I am so delighted to say that Hailee is going to become the dam of an American Sports Pony!!! That foal will be lucky to have a Welsh pony sire and a registered stock Paint horse dam with the blood of Easy Jet in her pedigree!! Cheers and Namaste to you all!!
