Here is L.V. (pronounced EL-vee). We call her L. V. for Little Vanna because she's just like her mother. In this photo, Elvie is recovering from a brush with death (you can see where her neck was shaved and an IV was used to administer lifesaving plasma). We nearly lost her when she was a day old. And, sadly, lost her dam, Vanna, when Elvie was a week old. Elvie (http://www.angelcreekstables.com/VannasBestThyme.htm) is by Pryme Thyme and out of Vanna (http://www.angelcreekstables.com/Vanna.htm).

Thanks, Donna. Actually, she's doing very well. She's an interesting and amazing story. She would NOT take milk in any form when her dam died. We tried everything: bottle-feeding; using a syringe; putting the milk in a bucket. And we tried different types of milk and milk powders. We even tried adding gelatin and Kool-Aid to the milk. We also brought out another mare that was able to nurse her and she wouldn't nurse. So, she has survived on nothing but grain from 7 days old. If you want to see some more pics of her, go to: http://www.carollmiller.com/VannasBestThyme.htm. Her web page includes pictures at three weeks, seven weeks and six months. You can see how well she came on eventually. She's now 20 months. Which means I need to update the site. Smile
