The Results Are In!!!

Dr. Tommy Mitchell of Bold Spring Veterinary Services in Blacksburg, VA is my vet. He specializes is Equine Reproduction. I had Tommy come out on Friday, 1 August, 1997, and he did a preg-check on Shar. The sneaky snake palpated her and then began an ultrasound and we were just talking about things and he had me freeze the frame on the ultrasound machine. I was thinking that he was going to show me how her follicle production was doing and then nonchalantly he says, "Oh, by the way, she's pregnant."

What a day, what a week, what a month! Or should I say a year!? Yep, that's it! She having a baby! Now I have until about September 15th to wait and hope and pray that she keeps it until then... If so, then bank on the 4th of July for a little bundle of joy!!!


The choosing of a name for a new foal can be very difficult! If any of you have any ideas for a good name, please feel free to contact me at shahar@usit.net with your ideas for a colt's and a filly's name. My personal preference is to have the name play off the sire's and dam's name. The sire is Prince Maarhalima by El Halimaar and out of AK Bint Juahara and the dam's name is Moniet Shahar by AK El Maalouf and out of Moniet Supris.
