Ook vind ik het veulen in haar erg druk en dit is duidelijk zichtbaar.
Jammer trouwens dat je de cam niet vast kunt houden en dat hij telkens verspringt naar Bob, die alleen nog maar een vreet manie lijkt te hebben.

Well, he is spectacular, and his mom is sneaky:0 Thanks to Lexie, Bill was on hand, though he did not expect Cookie to foal this evening, that’s for sure! His earlier mare check at 4:00 p.m. showed no difference in udder, only the tiniest hint of wax, no dripping milk, no sweating, not any more restlessness than she’s had for a few days, and she wolfed down her mid-day meal. She didn’t look smooth under her tail and did not feel soft for delivery. I guess Cookie gets ready last minute and delivers quickly, no doubt! She is a hardy gal! When she got down to business it was fast and she looks great. Contractions are still hitting her from time to time. She expelled the complete afterbirth and we examined it carefully and that looks good, too. We will have the vet out tomorrow to do the post-delivery exam. The little fella will get his blood drawn for an IGG test, a penicillin shot to prevent any infection from creeping in, and a general check-up for mom and son. Everything looks really, really good to us on both of them right now. We do need to make sure yet tonight that he is latched on real well to the faucets. He is getting the idea, but so far has not proven to be the sharpest tool in the shed, if you know what I mean!
The little guy (thinking of Deb’s poll) is average size, VERY colorful, and has unusual face markings. At first glance you might think he has no face markings, but closer inspection reveals what I guess you’d call a star, though it is rather fan-shaped and wispy, over his right eye area. Then there are a few white hairs opposite of that, so I don’t quite know how to describe it. After he dries completely it will be easier to see the outlines. And now, although he looks black, he is definitely a dark bay because his muzzle is brown like Cookie’s. Man, he is adorable! Thank you, Buddies, for being there with us tonight, and a special thank you to Lexie for calling Bill! Names will be short-listed tomorrow for your consideration, but all suggestions are still very much appreciated. Good night!

jullie zouden me moeten zien hier, ik heb de grootste stoel in huis voor de computer gezet en zit met een dikke deken om me heen naar die merries te kijken, hoezo verslaafd 
En rust maar lekker uit!
