This is Maddys second foal. Last year she had an easy foaling but this year she struggled giving birth to a huge foal who’s leg was backwards.
It was touch and go whether the foal would survive (and indeed Maddy) and was a very worrying time.
Thanks to the expertise and ministrations of our vet, at long last, the foal arrived and despite a very stressful birth she was full of energy and couldn’t wait to get on her feet. She is very feisty!
We have named her Geraroidin Roise (pronounced Ger-oh-deen Ro-sha) The gaelic meaning is Mighty with a Spear or Spear Ruler
It is also the gaelic version of our vets name – Geraldine Rose!
Her stable name is Roise (Ro-sha).
