Just wanted to share My mare had a filly Saturday night before Easter! I'm so excited. Horses have an 11 month gestation and she was 2 weeks past her 11 months so this little filly was a long time comin'!

    My aunt had a few horses and I saw a foal being born once. Nothing but head and legs...and a lot of icky stuff. Pretty cute when they are trying to walk though.

    Congratulations. Baby animals are just so priceless. I saw a few foals right after birth - one was just trying to stand for the first time and I wish I'd had a video of it.

    Like everyone else said -- PICTURES.

    We had a few horses growing up in Oklahoma. Nothing like seeing birth being given, whether animal or human. Nothing like the miracle of life.
