Rea and I had planned to keep the pregnancy with Tilly a secret. Except Tilly had her own secret. A much bigger secret.

Tilly had been transferred to UGA two weeks ago to be foaled out as there had been concern about her foaling. What a surprise it was for everyone when two little bundles popped out.

Tilly had been checked multiple times throughout her pregnancy for various reasons and to ensure she was doing well. Unfortunately, the twins were missed. I get it, veterinary medicine is always surprising us. There is a 1 in 10,000 chance of having live born twins and here we are with them.

There is a c**t and a filly, both small in size but both with s***k and zest for life. They do need more support than what I am able to offer them at the moment and UGA is the best place for them. Truly a miracle!! The twins will be receiving some splints to help with their contracted tendons - obviously there wasn't a whole lotta room for them to spread those legs considering the circumstances. Aside from the tendons, both foals are doing quite well. I have always said the Blue Valentine and Joe Hancock lines exude in self preservation and these two little sprouts are proving that.

I am pleading and begging the community to help us with getting these miracles the best chance at survival. They truly beat the odds by just making it out alive! I have included a link to the Gofundme I have created - because lets be honest, this is alot for a single mom. I will also include my Venmo. Donations can also be made directly to UGA at 706-542-3223.

We have spent so much time and hours caring for and treating others pets and horses and now we are asking to help us out. Please follow and share for the twins.

Our two 2023 HARTS SLIM NICKEL foals are coming ready to he listed soon!!! I anticipate officially listing them next month.

SQUID KID (background) is a black c**t, currently sporting a cool sun bleached s**g. He is anticipated to mature to 15 hands. SQUID will make an excellent ride once he is grown and would excel in any direction you send him.

Ms BRU (front and center) is a heavy sooty buckskin filly. She is expected to mature a bit on the smaller side, I anticipate just under 15 hands. Ms BRU is going to be an absolute eye catching show stopper!!! With her foundation and cow lines she would also make a wonderful addition to a broodmare program in the future.

These foals have started their Ranch One Eleven Baby Boot Camp with halter breaking, tying, and having legs handled. Our small number of foals born at the ranch each year allows us to spend quite a bit of time setting our babies up for a bright future.

We are so proud of all our NICKEL foals and I know their owners would absolutely stand for the temperament sweet NICKEL passes to each of his foals.
