So Many Things Have Happened Lately... This Is Hard

I still can’t believe everything that happened this week… 🐴💕

This has been one of the most emotional and intense foaling seasons I’ve ever experienced. In today’s episode, I’m sharing the full story of Maggie, from her emergency colic surgery while pregnant to the unimaginable moment she delivered a healthy foal less than 24 hours later. It’s a rollercoaster of farm life, tough decisions, and just how incredible these horses truly are.

We talk through everything behind the scenes, the vet visits, the risks, and why a C-section in horses is nothing like it is in humans. We also chat about Stephanie's very interesting milk-tasting technique, foal watch updates on Happy, Phoebe, and Annie, and we wrap up with another round of "Do You Know Your Animals?" featuring Lindsay.

Moments like this remind me why I love what I do, the highs, the lows, and the miracles we get to witness along the way. Let me know what y’all want us to talk about next 💕
