It's a very sad day at Circle E Ranch. Kit had her baby at 1:30 a.m. this morning and we lost him. Apparently, one of his feet hung up in the birth canal and prevented him from being born in time. It was a very difficult birth for Kit and her colon and rectum were severly torn. We had to call the vet out during a terrible thunderstorm and we stayed up with her most of the night. Kit is doing fine physically but will have to undergo surgery to repair the damage. Arnie gave the colt artificial respiration for half an hour in a futile attempt to save the baby. He was a beautiful Palomino colt. |

Our blog (a web log or sort of online diary) is maintained by chief stall mucker, poop picker-upper and all around slave to the animals,
Norma Epstein.
I write it all myself (no Pulitzer or accolades necessary) and I take all the pictures with a Minolta digital camera.
I take pictures and post to the blog whenever I find something interesting or have something interesting to say (and even sometimes when I don't).
