Whats happening on the ranch?

Blazin’ Saddles was blessed with twin foals!

BSR Docs Steel Colt and BSR Shady Lil Secret

Docs Shady Lady x Buenos Steel Jaz

As rare as it is to have twin foals born alive, our mare Docs Shady Lady, delivered live twin foals on April 27th.  A red dun colt and a dun filly.  The colt, who we named Colt, was about 60 lbs at birth.  The filly, who we named Secret, because she managed to hide from the vet on the ultrasound, was about 40 lbs at birth.  It’s been a long road with a lot of ups and downs and times we didn’t think they would survive.  We are thankful for all of the prayer support and help we received in the critical first week of their lives.  They are now a month old and doing very well.
Colt went down when he was just a couple of days old.  He was down for 36 hours and we feared we were going to  lose him, but he rallied and God answered our prayer for him to get back up!  After that, Shady no longer wanted to claim him as her baby and decided she just wanted her filly, Secret.  So, Colt ended up a bottle foal. Colt was born with very loose tendons in his hind fetlocks, so we are working on getting those strengthened and upright.
Shady is a first time mama and is not very careful about where she steps.  She stepped on little Secret on Mother’s Day, so Secret has been in a cast.  Prognosis is good though and she should heal without any complications! We thank God for how he is taking care of these little miracles.
