Actually I put them in the order they were on the list.

Anyone want to know how I picked these particular names?

I heard once a long time ago that horses are almost always born at night. In the wild, the foal needs to be on his feet and ready to run if the herd senses danger. That is also why they have legs almost as long as "Mommy" so they can keep up with the pace.

So I guess that anyone who picked a night time birth will have a good chance to win all the fabric.

Aunt Doggie, it's a previous page or two back, but poll is closed.
You can click on previous in corner, to go back and see who got in on this one.
May be another one coming up, but don't know yet, for sure.
Waiting to see.

That is why I picked my time :wink: :wink: :wink: HOWEVER we did see a mare do her foaling thing in the later morning last year. I think it was around 10am :roll: :roll: I guess being a renegade even applies to mares :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ok, everyone.....
YOU DO REALIZE THIS IS FOR PATCHES, NOT FLIRT. RIGHT??

Flirt is the one that is in the stall right now.

If you want to to one for Flirt, that's fine. We can...let me know.

I will say though we have had many foal during the day. Dancer just a couple months ago foaled on here during the day. I think it was noon?? And last year star foaled at 11 am. I think domesticated horses arent as afraid to foal during daylight as they feel much more secure then a wild horse.
