Today, we’re diving back into our archives for a truly heartwarming tale. Join us as we revisit an episode from October 2020, where Jamie and Glenn were joined by the incredible Tim Floyd, author of “Baby Haynes: A True Story About Adoption & Unconditional Love.”
Imagine being a one-month-old racehorse foal, suddenly orphaned after your mother succumbs to colic. That’s the reality Baby Haynes faced. Desperate for survival, he needed a surrogate mother to provide the nourishment he so desperately needed.
Through a stroke of fate, a neighboring mare who had recently lost her own foal stepped in to fill the void. A delicate grafting process united these two unlikely companions, forging an unbreakable bond between the mother mare and the tiny colt.
In this episode, Baby Haynes narrates his extraordinary journey. From the trauma of losing his birth mother to the joy of finding a new family, he shares his experiences with remarkable candor. Discover how he adapted to his new surroundings, overcame challenges, and blossomed into a beautiful yearling.
And of course, no Wednesday episode is complete without our signature lists and weird news!
