Well, I seem to remember introducing Marshall's QH foals that are here for only a short time long. My my are they looking good! I've dubbed the one "Wylan" so when I call him in for dinner I'm not yelling "You with the white leg and blonde hair!". He is really thriving on good food and the lush, hilly pasture. The other, dubbed "Nelson" for his unusual whinny, is also enjoying the pasture.
The final tally on mares due for 205 is 13. A lot for me but spread across the breeds. Two Fjord mares, five TB mares, three Welsh mares, two Irish Cobs, and one Somali.
I picked up a two year old colt to add to the show string. Meet Calling all Gunslingers. He goes back to my favorite Winchester Performance horse Black Tie Kustom on the top and bottom. He's been hanging out in the pasture for a couple months recovering from a speedy cut but next month he'll be heading to the barns for training. He has figured out how to undo the hose ties by the water tank, and I've found the hose pulled as far into the pasture as he could get it. Little smarty pants. Hopefully he'll be that smart about his lessons.
Slinger is gorgeous! Are you getting into AQH?
ReplyDeleteI may or I may not. lol I haven't decided yet, but he's a nice place to start if I am.
DeleteI'll send over the "sneak safe" hose hanger we've created here at the farm. Our Nooitgedacht ponies got into the habit of dragging the hoses around, so we had to create a solution and it has worked... so far.
ReplyDeleteSounds like things are moving forward over there. I'll have to sneak over again... just as soon as the barn manager lets me out of time out. She caught me sneaking in with the trailer and I'm in very hot water lol.
You landed in hot water it seems! Slinger is much better now and doing well in his lessons, he's still fascinated by the hose... even in the barn.
