Our home-bred 4 year old mare Breanna de Kingmaker became a mum for the first time at 3am today.
She gave birth to a lovely black colt with a small central star who we have named Fission de Kingmaker.
Dad is our black stallion Wilf (Thornville Pride).
We thought Breanna would be a hopeless mother as she has never shown interest in any of our earlier foals, but she has proved us totally wrong and is caring for her new baby with love and dedication like an experienced old hand
This is Breanna reaching round to check Fizz out for the first time.
He's just 5 minutes old in this photo and his hindlegs are still inside his mum :
Dry and fluffy in the stable at 6 hours old :
First time outside at 10 hours old :
