Your friend got a deal! I can almost understand the breeder not wanting to deal with the pinkeye...since it is so contagious and time consuming. I wish someone could tell me how long this will go on. Jack seems to be at a standstill. The cloudiness will not budge. We are at about the two...

The doeling at the bottom reminds me of our Cremella horse. Her name is Sierra. Very pretty. Congratulations.
