Finally got the summer pastures up and running!
All the snow did a fairly good job on the fences this winter and come spring, so did moose and deer.
Peppy & Polly
Turned out the mares and fillies this weekend, the fellas been out for a couple of weeks already, sleeping mostly...
Brady, Melvin & Like Lightning looking stressed
The ladies loved it and took a few laps at full speed, buckin and kicking before settling down to graze, graze and then graze some more.
Mexicali, Polly, Peppy, Super Man and Sessan.
Peppy feeling good!
Mexicali (Spanish Sue Reed) waterbreak.
The fillies felt right at home in the same pasture the were in with their mamas as foals. They even bedded down in the same favorite spot they used last year.
Molly & Cat
Diva, Cat & Molly
Can´t believe there´s no interest in this little filly! She´s put together just right, cute as a bug and has a really great mind. She shows some serious moves and is as balanced as can be. Well, it´s their loss...
Sweet Lil Angel, aka Molly
Cat is filling out and getting some meat on them bones. She still carries herself with grace and is a really pretty mover.
Kick the Cat
Diva is just that, a DIVA. She prances, snorts and treats us peons like air. She´s going to mature into a really classy lady and she knows it!
Diva
The little fella I call Super Man is still a heap of skin and bones. Mainly because it´s hard not to compare him with our own foal, Polly. Not fair as he is a standardbred and she´s a Quarterhorse, he´ll develop in his own time and will be a looker too, I´m sure as his siblings.
Super Man
Polly is as adorable as ever. The temper she displayed earlier is gone (more or less) and she loves attention, being scratched and petted.
Polly
Brady has his handsfull keeping track of the fillies in one pasture and the mares and babies in the other across the road from him. That´s ok though as it might help keep his girthwidth in check!
Brady
Avenir
Worked the bulls a little this weekend, pushing, cutting and roping. The horse handles really well around them and the cows are, as I´ve mentioned before, a whole lot easier to handle then the Highlands.
