Northeast Manny


Manny was born at 10pm on February 17, 2008.  His dam is West Fen Billie and his sire is Isles Field Danny Boy.

Sorry, Manny is not for sale.


The following pictures were taken on March 1, 2008.  Manny is just under two weeks old.

    


The following pictures were taken on February 17, 2008 within 30 minutes of birth.

     


Manny would not nurse when he was born but learned to drink from a bucket.  It is desirable for milk to be fed many times a day.  Since we had full time jobs and prefered to sleep at night we designed an automatic milk dispenser.  This dispenser is simple to put together.  It is based on a small submersible aquarium pump and a timer purchased at Home Depot.  Milk was automatically dispensed at 9am, noon, 3pm, 6pm, 9pm, midnight, and 3am.  At 6am we cleaned the setup and give the foal milk by hand.
