NAME REVEAL: Meet Duchess and her filly Regina!

This bay roan mare is a diva and she knows it, and her little filly is full of spice ... so we think Duchess and Regina fit them well! They've settled in and are doing well. They are both a bit reactive, but Duchess is warming up to us slowly. Regina is an active, happy foal with spice - she spent quite a bit of time bucking and double barrel kicking her very patient mama yesterday. We're working hard on getting Duchess to trust us and put a halter on so we can get an idea of her age. She does give to pressure some, so there may be some education in there, but right now she doesn't think we are worth her time. And we get it - she had to protect a newborn baby in a chaotic auction experience!

 

Duchess and Regina could use some monthly sponsors to help cover their care for the next several months, and right now Givebutter is giving an additional $10 bonus for every new monthly donor that signs up at http://gentlespirithorses.org/donate

Alternatively, they could use bags of a Mare & Foal feed! Regina is already copying mom and trying to eat with her, and as active as they are, they are going to eat a lot! You can order some for us to pick up at the Yankton Tractor Supply (57058) here: https://www.tractorsupply.com/.../mare%20and%20foal...
