Frail Foal Desperately Needs A New Mom After His Died 🐴💔 | Bondi Vet Clips | Bondi Vet 

Now I'm gonna cry. 😢❤

That's what is happening ❤

Ma'am you made me cry 😢

Love the way you think....♥️☮️🙏

😭

Si, también lo pensé. En el.caso de Uniek, el que viajó fue el potro, la yegua estaba relajada en su propia casa.

@@AliceSant195unfortunatelly Uniek has gone laterly…

@@cms4Lenait was so sad to hear she passed.

I watched this unfold on another channel with a Friesan mare who lost her foal, and a colt who lost his mum. So moving....

Yes Uniek (horse mom) and Rising Star (horse baby). Friesian Horses utube channel with Yvonne. They did great together each losing baby and a mom. That was 3 years ago. They are both doing well. Praise God.

That is sooooo progressive and clever. Amazing!

Uniek just died and Risey has wobbler

@tsmeman63 Thank you for telling this. Very nice to know about this organization in the Netherlands. 👍🌻..

I too have have lost a baby.

Me too

It’s been 10 years for my loss and she’ll always have half my 💔

@@Pintojanelle I had one in 2005, 2 in 2021. It doesn't get easier.

@@Farmchic3185 I literally couldn’t image living with more than one 😢I’m so sorry that you’ve had 3 !! I lost who I was preparing to be …Nobody even warned me that I could be 1 of every 4 women 😳 Horses have that similar grieving process especially since they usually only carry one 🥺

At the same time, that mare could have become seriously depressed (I've seen it in sheep who've lost their lambs, and can only imagine what it looks like in horses!), contracted mastitis, etc... Giving her an orphaned foal to raise solved her potential problems, too! It's a win-win.

The owner must've felt the mare's devastation as well. That's y they let them borrow her. They must felt so relieved after knowing a foal needs a mew mom. It's a win-win situation 💜

@@CantonDem13 Yes, it worked out well for both horses, and it could have been so tragic. Sometimes Nature, and caring people find a way, just when things are looking terribly bleak. I generally find animals to be kinder than most people…but those who live their lives in intimate contact with animals tend to become more empathic through those connections.🖤🇨🇦

@@angartsnirex It is a win-win situation when it works. Either one can decide they don’t want it, and that becomes the end of it. Fortunately Chris is very good at setting the scene for the best possible outcome…and it worked for these two.🖤🇨🇦

@@tamarrajames3590 Oh, for sure. Grafting doesn't always take. But this way, both at least had a chance, and it was absolutely a chance worth taking. I am very glad it worked!

So true. I've watched Friesian Horses for four years and saw that play out.

I love that channel 😊

@@rhondareadman Friesian Horse? Yes, I have loved it for four years. Since the year Lianne was born. Then the year of Matilda, Mintze Teije, Myrtle. I solidly fell in love with Reintje then.

@@rhondareadman are you a British Shorthair person, too?

Yes… I follow that Friesian Horse channel, too… It’s a beautiful thing to see!!

The vet isn’t going to give us an answer, is he? very odd situation… Talk talk talk but no milk

Me too, me too😒

To be honest, I’m sure they did - it would’ve been irresponsible not to; it’s just super dramatised and edited for TV to make it “exciting” 😑

​@@neon_berni They should have shown giving the milk if they did.

At the 6 min mark you can see a big green bottle in the background. They clearly were giving him horse formula, but was edited out to make it more dramatic for TV.

Reminds me of what happened 2 yrs ago with Friesen horses and her mare Uniek

@@Mistfall254 Yes, I watched the story of Rising Star and Queen Uniek in May 2021. It was the first I watched Friesian Horses and I have been hooked ever since. Do you still watch? Yvonne has her own stables now and horses she owns have recently given birth. She owns Shetlands as well as Friesians.

@@dianebannister4591 I know I was so concerned after her riding accident I'm so glad she was given a 2nd chance

@@dianebannister4591 also an avid watcher of Yvonne and her heard; funny thing is seeing these situations makes it seem like its no big deal like this just happens and works out when often mares/foals reject the adopted mare/foal! It was so magical and special then and this is equally just so magical and special!!! have a wonderful day

@@TheFairyNina Thanks for letting me know that you also watch Friesian Horses. I enjoy it so much. Pairing Uniek with Rising Star was the first episode I watched. I never forget that beautiful happy dance Uniek did when Yvonne was bringing Rising Star into the barn. Yes, the horse owners have to be very careful when trying to arrange an adoption between a mare and foal. If she rejects the foal, she might kick it and injure the foal. I watch a Sheep Channel, Sandi Brock from Canada. I have seen mother sheep reject their own sometimes. They beat up the lambs. Can cause injuries. Sandi then has to take them away and put on the artificial bottle feeder. Sandi tries to get some lambs to foster who need a mom. Sometimes, it works. Sometimes, it doesn't. I have been watching Sandi's channel for over 2 years also--Sheepisly Me. Have a Blessed Day and Evening!

Spoiler alart

Uniek wahr wunderbar 😊❤

You have to rub the foal with the foster mom's scent. Mares won't initially even recognize their own foals until they take a sniff.

*God

Yes, Friesian Horses channel

Ikr?! AND AN IV For fluids & glucose! 😕

Exactly!!!

To be honest, I’m sure they did - it would’ve been irresponsible not to; it’s just super dramatised and edited for TV to make it “exciting” 😑

Situation manipulated & dramatised for the TV ratings. 🤨

@@lynnegee6814 Exactly. It would only make sense that they give the newborn a bottle. As others said, they have to make it melodramatic for ratings.

Such a lovely ending ❤️

😢😊

Not a good video. Needs suspense.

I'm sure they have formula but did not have much.

I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days and you know God loves us so much,So where are you originally from? I am David originally from Spain but currently living in Texas now..

You can raise a foal on bottle feeding if you must, it's just the least desireable option. It's very labour intensive, has added health risks, as well as the foal being stressed from being alone, and having no one to teach it how to be a horse which is always gonna carry the risk of behavioral problems. All in all, it's possible but 100% a nurse mare is a much better, healthier option.

@@Thysillia, thank you for the explanation. Yes, I recognize a adoptive mare would always be better than bottle feeding. I only asked due to feeding not being mentioned. The video sounded, to me, at least, like his outcome would be fatal if no mare was found. And that may have been, in huge part, on the time without colostrum and its benefits. But again, that brought up why weren't they bottle feeding until and if they could find a adoptive mare. Thanks again.

@@ADayInLisasLife3947 Bottle babies can turn out to be real trouble. Foals need a herd to calm them & teach acceptable social behaviour. Without other horses to teach them, they act much more impulsively. Honestly, a lot of different animals that are hand-reared can turn out weird- obviously there’s cases where intervention is needed, but a lot of the time with horses it’s just “foal cute, must touch!”

Bottle foals develop boundary issues and will horseplay with humans like they would with other horses which is dangerous.

We've all seen horrendous cases of humans having a baby & not caring for it, not feeding the baby, not changing them, no love...but animals do it automatically, so what excuses do the people who don't tend to their baby's needs?

It's staged for the show. And with a lot of editing. The kind of nonchalant of the owner of the mare makes you feel both owners knew each other or of each other and they knew about their ranch and their experience. Usually the ranch/cattle communities are small by region. Pretty much everyone knows at least the name of your land.
