Two images of newboard foals in different situations, placed together due to proximity within in archive, as well as simialrity in theme as well as juxtapositon. The first image depicts a newborn foal in its mothers fluff, the location based on the tags. Likewise, the second image shows a runt buried in litter, most likely a reject. Out of the two images, only 22170 was archived.
This post is pending further information, whether it is from a retrievable archive or from the artist himself. Also, the post may seperated in two per the artist’s preference/intentions.

The burying of the runt is interesting. No stomping it, but burying doesn’t silence it. There’s a number of story possibilities that could come from this.

It is possible it may have been an unexpected birth (see: biggest poopies trope) Alternatively, it could also be a mother rejecting his foal by just burying it. Carp did intend some of his pieces to be interpretive.

Little rat is getting sand buried for fun
Carpdime’s work tends to vary on whether or not foals’ tails are fully fluffed at birth. In this case, it seems they are, with the colors of said tails being the only apparent difference between the foals. Makes me wonder if the one in the box was dumped for that slight difference, if it was simply misplaced by a careless parent, or if something else is at work here. Whatever the truth turns out to be, my “justicebox” brain is buzzing.
