Bubba was our 16th foal, a colt, born here at Dakota Winds Farm a week early and our last foal of 2010. His registered name "Brubu" is of course a wind and it literally means “a name for a squall in the East Indies". Natalie wanted to use the name Bubba as his barn name in honour of our beloved barn cat who sadly passed away the same day as this foal was born. Bubba is a lovely long legged colt with a saucy but sweet personality ... thank you to "Grandma" Fly for taking care of both of Mom and son during the birth as we were away for a few hours and Qui was not due yet and thus had given absolutely no signs that she was ready to foal. |
