FOAL WATCH! Nuggets Foal Has Arrived!!!! Live Horse Birth
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
Finally! The moment has arrived! Watch Nuggets foal arrive into the world!
We got Nugget this past fall as a 2 year old. We were unaware that a stallion had gotten in with her at the previous owners farm and had a big surprise this winter when we started being suspicious she was pregnant, to our surprise our suspicions were confirmed with a vet visit. We know Nugget is to young to be having a foal but we will make the best of a bad situation!
Follow along with us as we anticipate the arrival of her birth. We hope to capture her birth to be able to share with you!

It just amazes me how the little one knows what they need to do on any animal that I've watched being born it's God's work
Nugget did awesome. She needed a bit of help with that final push to get the shoulders out because she is a young momma but Nugget seems to adore her filly.
I ❤ watching the babies. Good growing wishes to all Mama's lil ones. Thank ya"ll for being there to help.
Most beautiful thing I have seen in years. Last time I saw a birth, I was a bit hands on as she was a breech birth. Both mom and foul were healthy. The first few hours are scary, but once mom is up and foal starts nursing, let nature take it's course. Thank you so much for this insight.
Watching the interaction between Momma and baby girl was beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Poor mama was trying soooo hard to get that baby out! She is exhausted! I feel for her. ❤💙💚💛💜

That little filly is gorgeous. Thanks for sharing the birth.

Dusky sundown would be a nice name for this beautiful filly

That’s a beautiful name. Her new owner named her Dandi💕
A good name for the foal would be "Nugget's Promise".
This is so beautiful ! Nugget and her little filly look so good ! JR, I love how you assisted when needed. ❤
Sweet mama is so tired.❤❤❤
Wow! Careless of those owners to allow this! But what can you do? Nothing! Glad Nugget came through in good shape and with a healthy filly! Hope this won't stunt her growth, she wasn't very big to begin with! Good luck! Poor momma was exhausted! Good thing you helped her a bit...what a sweet pair!
That was wonderful seeing this beautiful baby being born. Poor wee Momma was pretty exhausted after giving birth. Nice that you gave nature time to do her thing, so very wise. Mum and babe doing well. She has a lovely big strong foal there. All the best baby, welcome to the world. Hope you have a beautiful life 😘🙏💕
Lovely to watch! And I'm so glad that you didn't barge in to help right away! That was a pretty big foal for such a young, small mare. It's hard to imagine that baby and its legs folded up inside little Nugget! I really appreciate the gentle, respectful way you handled this birth.
Healthy baby for sure, awe how cute
A beautiful foal! Nugget had a mini-me. (I saw the footage over at your dad's channel. She looks so much like Nugget, that you could'a knocked me over with a feather.) May He continue to watch over them, and all your family.
How precious! I’m fact that would be a good name for her- Precious! ❤
She is a bright new Pennie a keeper for sure! Thanks for sharing; looking forward to the updates.

Another successful birth…. Yippee.
Wow!! I was SO worried for mom!! she looked like she was in such pain! I thought she might die ? I was scared for her! growing up first book I had in my hands was old farm vet book showing pictures how baby horse should come out front feet & nose first= & also showed other pictures where baby is in trouble with front legs right head back 😬😳 & also pictures feet first I guess breech? & how u gota help or the baby will die! Maybea mom too??? - but I've BEVER seen this in real life WOW!! you had to help her! - I thought I wouldn't be able to hack watching? But I couldn't stop was worried for both mom & baby so glad they're both ok JR YOUR AWESOME!! To know what to do! I would not have known how to help them other than knowing correct position of baby should be being born in - WOW THEIR BOTH OK IM SO RELIEVED ! THANK GOD - hmmm? Baby girl name suggestion?? Something Gold-ish? Or Spring?? Pattie?? (Great grandfather vet then a doctor & great grandmother was a midwife delivered babies by horse & buggy) that's where the old book was from 🙂👍🐴❤️ - (I do much smaller animals dogs birds turtles prarie dogs)

Yes, we were worried to for a bit. She had a hard time for second there.
Maybe something simple like Honey and Ginger or something like Ms. Fancy and Princess Diana. 😃 She is absolutely beautiful. Just some suggestions. I don't have any, but I love horses.
I saw it on your other video, her daddy is a buckskin, but I forget his name.

Yes, I’d have to go back and look at the sites name. I don’t remember it off the top of my head. He is GORGEOUS though.
I would have thought that the udders would have dropped down farther to make it easier for the foal to nurse!

Horses don’t get large bags. But yeah Nuggets bag didn’t get huge. It has changed a bit from the foal nursing and her milk coming fully in though.

Who’s the sire
Hello from British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦👋👍♥️🌲🧘♀️🌲🚵♀️🌲🐴👍😎
This is a beautiful baby, isn't it funny that it's always so lat a t night, lol
I have always thought that mare’s were standing up to give birth🧐Poor mama Probably won’t be running with the studs again after this🤪. Was happy to see JR to give some assistance for a large foal and a young mama. Wise advice from JR hit home. My grandson stopped breathing when the umbilical cord was cut as it was his only provider of oxygen. He had transposition of his hearts great arteries and coded. 9 lbs and had his first heart surgery at 12 hours old. Sadly I saw his oxygen level of 27 💔but he is still a joy🥰.
Thanks

Love watching Nugget giving birth to her baby. Name: Peanut butter
Thats amazing God is Good!!! Shes Beauttifull.
A little Peanut Butter Nugget
Awesome video name her baby SHILO
Beautiful 😍

Poor momma ! She is just laying there wondering of it is really over or if she has just died ! The legs on that kid ! !
Such a beautiful event. Thanks for sharing. Nuggets can produce ingots of Gold. How about something like Ingot? Inga is a female name in some places so it would fit generically and genetically, perhaps, methinks. Loved this video.
Tundra Halo Bourbon If you need ideas 🥰 my mare is due in 10 days. Im so nervous and excited.
What a fantastic video! We thought we heard JR refer to her as Naomi.

Not sure what your asking?
I am not a horse owner and am definitely not an expert by any stretch of the imagination, but I’m wondering why you didn’t have Nugget in a stall with a good cushion of hay while she gave birth instead of a hard cement round pen with mud everywhere.

This is just a dirt floor. And it’s WAY better for a mare to have room to move around then be confined to a stall. You don’t want to confine them like that. They have to be able to move, walk, adjust their bodies etc to get their foal out,

What about the name Penny?

I’d have to look up his name. He wasn’t our stud. A beautiful buckskin stallion though! So gorgeous.
If it was a wild horse she would have gotten pregnant during her first heat. As long as mom is happy and healthy. I was watching another channel they have a mare who can't be ridden and they bred her. She is sound enough to carry a foal, but not to be ridden. She's 2 and will foal after her 3rd birthday. While that might not be the case for every breed or every horse. It can be done. Not sure how old Nugget is though.
You could name her after grandma.
Goodness, the poor mare’s living conditions are pretty Spartan and basic! A little straw and comfort wouldn’t go amiss, especially when she’s giving birth. Such a cold, hard floor 😥
I think you should name her Rosie

Rosie is cute ☺️
Name her Sweet Foot
What's wrong with this momma? She's pretty much ignoring her baby. Thank God the foul's on her A game.
