Well, for once my paranoia about Diablo turned out to be well-founded. She has lost her Laredo Blue baby.
And I cannot rebreed to him because he is in Brazil. That means I have to decide between two other studs I can replace him with and that make financial sense. But I have to decide ASAP. Like tonight, as she is ovulating on Saturday probably.
