I am so enjoying watching this colt figure things out! He is light on his feet, and has some spunk. He shows the cutting moves he was born to do, and a little of his daddy's reining moves- did a nice sliding stop today which of course was before I could whip the phone out for a video.
But there is enough cuteness anyway! In fact he gets cuter by the minute!
The legs are all where they are supposed to be, no issues.
Yesterday he was straining to pooh so I gave him and enema; a little later he was still straining so I gave him a second one. I use the Fleet enema for children, it's just the right size. This morning he is all normal and full of bouncy happies. Which I get so bemused watching him I forget to get photos for the blog!
Sassy is being a very good mama. She is watchful, very careful with her feet, and has no problem with me messing with her precious boy.
Tonight I will leave the stall door open, as baby has learned to follow mama in and out of it.
This colt looks the most like Beamer of all the ones he has sired.

What a sweetie!
That 'skunk' tail tells me that there may be rabicano in his genes. Hard to tell if there is also the roan gene. He is gorgeous. Glad he isn't a she

Emily why do you say glad he isn't a she?
Beamer's mama was a black rabicano, and Sassy is from the High Brow Cat lines so yes, rabicano in the family tree.
Fun to see his cuteness! So glad Sassy is a good Mom:)
Shirley,
If he were a she, I'd be very tempted to haul across country and bring it home.
