So this is Toad Hill's Little Zipper. She is just under 2 weeks old now (May 25, 2014) and you can already see she has attitude and spunk.
Below is the family portrait viewing from left to right:

Dad....Lucky Four RebelChase Rebelheir.
Also Willow has already been bred back to Rebel for a 2015 foal.
Foaled May 13, 2014.
Foal was born sometime at night in the alley between two buildings. The alley is 30 feet by 10 feet so plenty of room, but at one end is a horse panel with about 1 foot clearance below it. From the evidence of the after birth being in the alley and the foal in the adjacent stall this is what probably happened.
Mare foaled, foal was dried off and nursed, then lay down to sleep. When the foal got up, it rolled under the fence, up on the wrong side. Tried to get back to mom, jumped 1 1/2 feel jump into the adjacent stall and that is where I found her this morning.
One hour after finding the foal, and the after birth I decide everything looked good and let the kid out. They ran down to join ShowCase and her colt.
