For those of you who like to see Breezy's baby every year here he is Apple Jack. For those of you who don't know Breezy his dam is blind. She has been blind for years, but still has a very nice baby for us every year.
Nice baby!! How dos she keep track of her foals? I mean.... I know she's the holder of the milk and everything... but does she ever stress out when the foal wanders off?

We have to keep her in a pipe pen & while it's a large pen the baby can't go to far. I was going to put a halter on her foal with a bell on it, but she has always done really well. She just stops tilts her head sideways and listens. I suppose she can hear it walking or running. Every once in awhile she will nicker and turn in a circle, but not very often. Last year we even had another mare in foal in with her most of the time & she did really well with them, but all other years it just her & her foal in a large pipe pen.
