Jazzmine has again presented us with another suberb youngster, this time a colt. He is extremely friendly, but full of cheek as only colts can be.
DEVERON (pend) bay filly
Sire: Deveron Di Maggio
Dam: Deveron Bernadette
Born: 30.11.08
After a very stressful pregnancy, due to an injury, Bernadette surprised us by delivering a very healthy filly foal. There was a time there that I did not think she would carry the foal full term, such was the level of her pain.
Mother and daughter are doing extremely well, so much so, that for the first time I have not had to do supplementary bottle feeding, which is a major bonus for me.
SADLY ON THE 8th DEC 08 DEVERON LA DIVA FOALED A STILLBORN COLT FOAL BY DI MAGGIO.
SHE FOALED RIGHT ON HER DUE DATE, BUT THE FOAL WAS FOUND TO BE IN A MALPRESENTATION POSITION. WITH THE HELP OF 2 VETS AND MY HUSBAND THEY WERE EVENTUALLY ABLE TO CORRECT THE POSITION OF THE FOAL FOR A NORMAL DELIVERY, BUT TRAGICALLY THE FOAL HAD DIED SOME HOURS EARLIER.
LA DIVA IS FINE AFTER HER ORDEAL, AND THANKFULLY SHE BEHAVED AND COOPERATED VERY WELL THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE PROCEDURE.
OTHER FOALING NEWS FROM MARES IN FOAL TO DI MAGGIO
Jane Reid, of Banyandah NSW reports the arrival of a chestnut colt from her ASB mare, Curzon Belle. Jane is very happy with him and says he is very quiet and has already had his first floating lesson with no hassles.
He has been named Polaris, after the navigational star.
Photos coming soon.
Glennis Dyason and Eil Kingma of International Horse Breeders also have a colt, this time a bay with white stockings, from their Warmblood mare, Kendalee Dawn. Dawn is the dam of our own mare IHB Jazzmine.
He has been named IHB Denmark.
Merle & Paris Rodwell of Buckwell Park Stud also have a colt from their Anglo Arabian mare, Buckwell Park Philadelphia. He is chesnut with stockings and a blaze, and was born a month early. From all accounts Paris did a wonderful job in helping the delivery of him, as he had one leg back and Paris had to be talked thru the birth by her mum, over the phone. Well done Paris.
Buckwell Park Endeavour, as he has been named, arrived with no mane or tail although quite robust and Merle now reports that at a month old he is the fastest horse on the property. They are very pleased with him, with his pretty head, lovely length of rein and long legs.
IHB Denmark at 3 weeks of age with Eil Kingma and friend.
This super colt is offered for sale.

Di Maggio's first Quarab foal arrives
"Nellie" arrived safely on the 30th Jan 09 after a number of complications throughout the pregnancy.
With the Quarter horse mare, Quickfrost threatening to foal early, and then getting an abdominal tear in the late stages of pregnancy, it was joy all around when "Possum" foaled a live healthy filly.
Her owner Clair Cook of Coffs Harbour, NSW, was fortunate to be able to borrow a girdle to help heal the tear in the last 3 weeks before foaling.
Both mare and foal are now doing very well.
ENDEAVOUR NOW HAS NEW HOME WITH LETITIA TOMS OF CANBERRA.
IT IS PLANNED HE WILL BE OUT AND ABOUT ON THE SHOW SCENE.
