More roses and a bellyache

First the pretties:

I did a little more research on the rose I thought might be a John Franklin and I have changed my mind, because of the way it starts out a lovely red and fades to pink.

I took a photo of a fresh red bloom next to one that faded to pink:

I do have trouble photographing red, but the colour difference is definitely there. And the rest of the description fits.

I also took one of the Campfire Rose all opened up and gorgeous 

Here are 2 more roses I didn't include in my other rose post- Morden Blush:

and Louis Jolliet, my climbing rose. It is really growing this year!

Its blooms don't last long, but it is self cleaning and new blooms come all season long. And- it smells divine!

I have moved Jayne and Dally into the foaling pen, which is right across the alley from Beamer, with the idea that Jayne will be less worried about her baby and more inclined to flirt with Beamer.(it seems to be working!) Yesterday I was sitting in my cabin watching for Jayne's behaviour to indicate heat, and I saw Dally rolling. No big deal, I thought, there are mosquitoes and she is probably itchy. She rolled completely over.... 6 times. Ok, that's unusual. Earlier I had seen her straining to poop- a far cry from the liquid stream she had last week. So I watched a little longer, and she was lying down and licking at her belly, then standing up and kicking at her belly. Ok, we have a bellyache, I suspected gas as everything goes into that baby mouth. I got my DiGize oil out and got some on her belly, then left her alone for a while. 

That's an unhappy baby!

Licking where I put the DiGize, which is fine as it is ok to consume

An hour later I checked and she was indeed passing gas. She got one more application of the oil; hen I checked her an hour later she seemed to be pretty much back to normal. Whew!

This morning- she was back to her normal precious little self.

There's always something with babies!
