Lady Dyanaformer turned 7 today and got the perfect gift—sunshine and a shared paddock for Ditto and Thirteen. Audi’s behavior and milk chemistry have shifted fast, and the team is officially on high alert for foaling overnight.

Rain and wind kept turnout brief again today, but Ditto stayed bright, Thirteen stayed curious, and Audi stayed pregnant. Surprise gave the team a quiet victory by laying down for the first time in weeks—thanks to joint care and lots of love.

The final votes are in! See which names Foal Circle members selected as the Top 3 for Elusive Surprise’s colt and what happens next as we await The Jockey Club’s approval of his official name.

Audi’s milk calcium has crossed the 50 ppm mark, and while her pH remains above 7.0, we’re starting to see signs of progress. Cold hosing helped ease some swelling in her legs today as rain continues to drench Central Kentucky. Foaling’s not quite imminent—but we’re inching closer.

Ditto continues to improve, Thirteen’s loose manure likely linked to foal heat, and Audi shows her first subtle signs of approaching foaling. Name submissions for Thirteen close tomorrow!

At just 12 days old, Thirteen is already nibbling hay and exploring the world with his mouth—just like nature intended. From early hay sampling to the surprising benefits of eating manure, this post takes you inside the curious (and completely normal) behaviors that help foals grow strong and healthy.

Dyana’s filly had a big turnaround today—no more diarrhea, more energy, and her leg wraps are off! PCR results confirmed common pathogens, but early treatment paid off. Plus, Thirteen is thriving and Audi's foal watch prep begins this week.

Today’s chilly, windy, and rainy weather kept Surprise, her colt Thirteen, and pasture-mate Audi indoors at Horse Husband Stables. Dyana and her filly were already staying inside until the filly's contracted legs improve.

Dyana’s filly faced a challenging second day, with diarrhea, low IgG levels, and a concerning drop in white blood cell count. The HHS team responded quickly with high-gamma plasma, antibiotics, and supportive care. With early intervention showing signs of improvement, we're cautiously optimistic.

Lady Dyanaformer welcomed a beautiful filly just before midnight on March 20th—right on her due date! The Horse Husband Stables team provided careful assistance during delivery due to initial complications. Although born with tendon challenges, this spirited filly is thriving with supportive care and veterinary oversight. Learn more about her eventful arrival and early progress!

Dyana kept everyone guessing on her due date with early morning rolling and increasing signs of discomfort—but no foal yet. Thirteen handled the cold, rainy day indoors like a pro, earning new toys for his good behavior, while Audi remained calm and steady.
