Darkwood's 2025 foals

So sorry for your loss! You’ve had it rough this year… Love the name, though, for what it’s worth.

Thanks!

Sorry to hear about your mare, she was way to young. Hope her foals give you comfort and make their mom proud.

Fingers crossed :slightly_smiling_face:

Well the foaling gods really have us in their sights! Ravens foal was not due until about 9th April and was too young to survive.
