Flashback to this past Saturday, April 6 when Lassofthemohicans delivered her Candy Ride filly. Denali Stud shared this video of the foaling and how well she did throughout the delivery. Happy (almost) one week to Lassofthemohicans19.
Lassofthemohicans delivered a bay filly by Candy Ride Saturday, April 6 at 10:06 p.m. After birth, the filly measured at 42 inches tall and weighed 124 pounds. The mare had a quick and easy delivery and both seem to be doing well at this time.
Conrad Bandoroff, Vice President at Denali Stud shares an update on Lassofthemohicans and her filly:
"We are thrilled with Lassofthemohicans Candy Ride filly. She has everything that we look for in a young foal with good leg and a nice frame to grow into. During the vet exam this morning following her foaling, the filly was discovered to have a couple broken ribs. This is not uncommon in good-sized foals. We will restrict the foal's turnout to a stall for 10 days to allow the ribs to heal. Turning out a foal with fractured ribs can be dangerous as the broken rib could puncture the lung if the foal is jumping and playing around. A vet will recheck and examine the filly later in the week to ensure they ribs are healing well."
Even while recovering, it looks like Lassofthemohicans19 is curious and friendly!
Lassofthemohicans kept calm through her delivery tonight; adding a sixth filly to Foal Patrol! Mom and foal are doing well and being monitored by the Denali Stud staff after the birth.
In a few hours, the farm staff will turn off the cameras to ensure the foal is receiving adequate antibodies to stay healthy. We will share the birth video and photo updates soon.
