Dirty Baby's?

Anyone else have DIRTYYY baby's!
Well ours went out with him momma and found the dirtiest, muddiest spot in the field to roll, and now she's filthy.

My question: How would you get her clean?

I was thinking I could kind of sponge bath her. I got most of it off with a brush, but her legs are still filthy and I need pictures to register her but I can when she's dirty!

How funny!!! What is your weather like? If it's nice give her a bath. My mare had a palomino... so I got him used to baths VERY early on... knew I'd have problems keeping him clean.

If she's never had one get someone to help you. One of you hold her while the other holds the hose. Try to keep her next to a fence or in a corner, so she can't run away from you... Then just slowly get the water nearer to her and take it slow.

My guy was a monster the first time and then he started getting better. Now he loves the water.

She's only 2 weeks old though? Is it too early to bath? She's not even completely halter broke yet, that's why I was thinking sponge bath?
