Indigo Diamond Surprise


Born on the 30th April, 2003, Surprise has - to quote our vet - 'grown like a weed'.  Her mother did her very well indeed, and they received no concentrates until a fortnight before weaning (even then, it was a modest chaff/sugar beet pulp mix with just a dash of coarse mix.)

 

Little Macha (Portia) has held her condition well - but is not quite as pregnant as she looks in this photo.  She was slow to come into season, then conceived twins. Attempts to pinch one twin out failed - we lost them both and had to start again.  So she was barely 3 months in foal when this pic was taken at the end of November - just before weaning.



Surprise was weaned at seven months, and spent the first week stabled with her aged companion Callie, and turned out in our new manege during the day.
