I love how Brynie has to keep chasing after him like a mum who’s child keeps running away 🤣 definitely gonna be handful to deal with but you can tell he’s gonna have such a good personality 🥰

I think Badger would be a great name for this cute colt. It just feels right for a stable name. Also, his stripes are adorable!

[@roguespartan1194]

I love that name, so cute!! Badger would suit him well.

Over here in SW USA, we'd call his coloring "grulla"--(grew-yah) a black colt with both a dun gene that produces the dun stripes (and boy he does have stripes!!) and dilution gene (or 2 of them) that dilutes the black to that sort of smooth grayish tone. I love the bllack of his tail bordered with white. He's lovely, whatever official color name he carries. One of my rancher friends loves the grullla color best of all.

[@diannefeinstein5135]

What a handsome foal he is. He’s going to be a little fire ball. Look how agile he is already. Love his coloring. Welcome to the world.

[@abbebladon]

Omg he is sooooooo gorgeous! He’s got personality in SPADES! Poor Bryni, every time she tried to graze on yummy gras he pinged off and she had to follow, you could almost feel the eye roll from her 😂😂😂😂😂😂 she’s such a fab mumma. ❤

[@margaretmetcalfe9380]

He's so bouncy he would suit Zebedee or Tigger. What a beautiful little colt, but then mum is also gorgeous so would expect nothing else.

[@gabbyeet]

I think Zebedee would fit Dee's foal more!!

[@HollyJordan15]

What a gorgeous little foal he is & spicy, lots of personality. You should call him Tigger as his stable name with all his leaping around. They both look so well. We definitely need more brother videos 🤣

[@peggymaihafer6097]

Comet would be such a good name for him!

[@EquitationAddie]

[@lils.eq.135]

i feel like he would suit the name stone and maybe his show name could be like dunstone… because of his coat as he was meant to be a dun kind of colour!!😂

Isn't he just a tiny little Mother Earth's masterpiece. So precious and vulnerable and yet so strong, brave and open to life💕. Happy chappy!! Cheaky Boy! Speedy legs. Just a tiny bit naughty 'cos he is so special. Full of confidence. Ready to LIVE LAUGH and LOVE. Little man💓.

[@Clarke_Girls]

Love how he jumps everywhere! My foal is a month now and still cant trot yet! And he is a welsh! So he just canters everywhere lol!!

[@april5666]

Another Elphick Event beauty for the fields. He is a cracking good foal, Meg. So hard to stop watching him leap around. Sounds like you have your name choices down, but for what's worth, I would call him "Sassy Man". I like Lightening McQueen too, he is a little firecracker. And that colour!!!

[@lucy6341]

OMG he is the cutest little bundle of joy. Congrats to Bryni the perfect little mum.Wishing you the best health for both of them x

He is just such a gorgeous boy, even if he's got that naughty strong spirit in him ;). Thanks you for sharing with us all!

[@rentechpad]

So used to watching foals at that age running around mum like they are a moon orbiting a planet, so mum can stand and graze while baby exercises in circles never more than mates stride away, so really different to watch this little one racing across the paddock with his mum hot on his tail making sure he is not about to get lost. Reminded me of mums at a mall during the holidays as they chase after toddlers zooming about distracted by everything that is shiney and bright and glitters. I have to also admit that its unusual to see a foal that young so full of energy he cannot stop bucking and kicking, hopefully that calms down a bit as he grows or your professional tree surgeon / amateur stall painter may have to be hired back in sooner to cover up the damage done by feisty little hooves! His color and markings are extremely interesting but even the change in a week makes one wonder what changes will happen over the next few weeks so between that along with his personality once he slows down a bit to get some human to foal bonding with really makes it hard to jump in and name him too quickly. I have had many a foal who literally earned a stable name in the first few hours and the name fitted well for life, while once in a while we have gotten one like your tiny guy who had us popping out with a new and better fitting name twice a day. Give it time, a perfect name will become obvious and its still many weeks before he needs a name humans utter to get his attention, as mum's whiny and her milk are the important calls right now.

[@Marlee195]

I reckon Gilbert the Gangster 😂😂. He has some great moves, turns like a polocrosse horse, jumps like a show jumper. Looking forward to seeing how he grows.

[@jillianfirestone1890]

I have a big 16:3 hand gray gelding named Eli. He is the kindest horse ever!

[@animallover7009]

You should call him tigger as he jumped up and down all the time 😂. Also because it looks like he has striped. He is soo cute ❤. He would have such cute foals if you kept him as a stallion/colt, he could go out with the geldings but it might be to difficult for you guys to keep him as a stallion as you have so many mares.

[@kerid195]

I cant wait to see his true colors come out.. he so beautiful rn.. I believe it's gonna be amazing ❤

[@annejarvis7002]

Meg, how on earth are you going to get any work done? I wouldn't be able to take my eyes off that bundle of cuteness. "Pickle" might be an appropriate stable name - he has such a cheeky character. Poor mum has got her work cut out for her (as do you & Hobbit🤗). Am loving the family collaboration 😅. The stables are looking great. I did get the impression that Dee was looking around asking "where's my foal?" She's going to be a marvellous Mum. Give Bryni a week & she might say to Dee "Please take mine😭".

[@MacaelasEqOfficial]

you are one of my biggest inspirations for sure. Ever since i was about 4, i have wanted to ride horses. It’s been my dream for so long, and i thought last year that it was finally going to happen. I went on a trail ride, i went in super excited and came out crying. Turns out, i’m allergic to horses. I get hives on my stomach, i can’t take a deep breath without coughing, and my eyes swell shut. That discouraged me for a while, and i was devastated towards the fact that i might never be able to ride again. I beg my mom, and i’m hoping this trainer that we reached out to will respond soon, so that i can start 1 on 1 lessons. Watching you has kept me motivated, and i’ve made sure not to give up on my dream, despite the challenges. Thank you so much for inspiring me to keep going and to never give up!

I used to be a stable hand at sales and training barn for mainly freisan cross horses. There was 4 mammas that had babies when i worked there. 2 were fillies, two were colts. All diff ages. Oldest was two months old, youngest 6 days old . Two of the fillies were named willow ( two months old, other was named prim rose). I think she was 2 weeks old at the time . The one colt was named oliver. The other didnt have a name bc she and her mama were for sale. Willow had a mind of her own lol. Prim rose listened really well. She was a sweetheart!

It is so funny! Usually, the mare is trotting around or grazing and the new foal is by her side. A quite picture of repose momma and baby. In this case, poor Bryni is chasing HIM around. She's trying her best to keep up with him and keep him in her sights. Bryni has her work cut out for her her keep up with that little boy! I can't wait to see what color he becomes, what happens to those stripes and if the little spitfire remains that way. I think he will! Bold as brass and when he is ready for cross country, look out world.
