Ok, it is so cold!!!!!!!

We decided to go ahead and put Ruth (Saints Prayer) up tonight. She has a pretty good size bag right now, and is big as a house! She is bred to Hes Tee Totally Cool (AQHA/APHA). Here is the rundown on Ruth. She is a Skipper W, which we have found cross amazing well with "todays" big time halter stallions. Now, For all of you who don't know the pedigrees of Skippers.... well they can be a little crazy. I say this because back like 10 yrs ago, and still some today, are all pasture bred and raised. And the mares (like Ruths mother) was turned out with several different stallions. So, on Ruth's papers her sire is not correct, we DNA tested her. LOL. She is by Saint Sheila, an amazing crop out stud, who is now deceased. It is all highly organized isn't it, hehehe. And of course back then crop outs weren't allowed to be registered with AQHA.... So just throw a couple of studs in the pasture.... Do you get it now? Some of you are scratching your heads right about now. LOL. We had the best cross with a "Saint Sheila" mare and Touchdown Kid, we were so excited to have her as a future broodmare, but she unfortunately died in a freak accident. I wish I had some recent pics of her, for you guys. Anyways, don't think Ruth is extremely close. I do think she will go before March, but I've been wrong before. I apologize for Ruth's appearance this evening.... I would have brushed her, but I would have to tie her up, and she probably hasn't ever been brushed. For all who don't know she was pasture raised and bred, so she isn't a huge fan of people. I don't think she has even ever foaled in a stall before! Night All, Taylor. P.S. If you see Ruth walking around, and acting irritable, she isn't in labor, just made that she is in a stall without her gang (the herd.) She is boss when Missy is out being a mom. LOL
