We put Petula in the barn last week in preparation for her calf. She settled down nicely and we were able to scratch her and be in the stall with out stressing her out. On Wednesday February 8th around noon, I went to the barn to meet the farrier, who was there to trim the horses hooves. Petula was making quiet cooing sounds when I got to the barn door. Right away I knew something was up. When I got into the barn, she had her calf standing beside her, it was still wet. She is a great mom covering her calf with hay and lying in front of it to keep it warm. Mom and babe are doing great.
