Shadow has our first baby of the year!
***Update: I’ve looked back through my notes, and it looks like DAVID definitely is the sire of this darling little girl. 🙂
She looks a bit like Storm as a baby.
Shadow stands over her little girl while she naps.
Shadow and baby with stepdaddy Seven. Check out baby’s curled ears. 🙂 I love seeing that!
Like my mom said: “Spring time = baby time!”
Spring Creek Basin Mustangs 
AWESOME!!!!! Yes, the curled ears are too precious for words. B.
I love seeing the babies when they’re still so brand new to the world.
Any idea who dad is?
Because she looks so much like him when he was a baby, I think her sire is Storm. But I haven’t had time to take a close look at my notes or photos from last year to say for sure. The other possible is David. Shadow’s previous foals were sired by him; both colts, one bay, the other black. (Storm is grey; David is bay.)
There is a good chance Davide is the sire! Like shadow he could be a heterozygous black and so he can produce chestnuts!
This is true. Mahogany, who was David’s mother, I think, had a sorrel filly in 2011 that stayed sorrel.
Finally the babies are starting to come!!! 🙂 Look forward to seeing more pics of her! She is such a cute little chestnut! From the looks of kootenai and ravens belly I think we would expect to see a few more in the coming weeks! 🙂 thanks TJ as always your pics are beautiful!
She’s so cute! The curled ears are amazing, any ideas for a name yet?
Yes, but I’m holding on to it for a bit to make sure. 🙂
Very cute. The first foal for us was also out of the mare Shadow, a little bay. Not sure yet if it is a filly or a colt. Nice coincidence!!
How cool is that?! And congrats to y’all, too!
Well I’ll be. If that’s not the sweetest thing to see. The image of Shadow watching over babe is precious.
I wonder what her name will be? 🙂
Stay tuned! 😉
Ahh, how precious, can’t wait to see your pictures when the other new ones appear.
It is notoriously difficult to get pix of Shadow and her babies. She’s an excellent mustang mama!
Awwww. David??!! Lovely lone David. That’s great news. I like David. 😉
Absolutely adore baby horses, amazing sweetness,
