Spring cria













The first of the 2011 crias have arrived safe and sound. Kiana was first with a good sized Perilli daughter who we promptly named Dolce Vita. It was a cool drizzly day so we immediately outfitted the little one in a cria coat to keep her snugly warm.

Nikki followed suit the next day. It was a hot one and she must have sneaked off under the trees to deliver her cria as we didn't really notice a second cria until feeding time the next morning. Nikki wasn't showing any signs of being ready to deliver and when I saw two cria in the barn I did a double take before I realized there were two. Nikkis' gal is an Icelander daughter who we named Demoiselle.
