My new colt age 2 is just full of himself, prancing and running around like he is KING. The mares really like him, but I may wait until June to breed a couple. I like babies coming when it is nicer weather and May is perfect.
Phantom, the new 2 year old black pinto colt was practically laying down on the ground reaching under the fence to get to the barn cat. The barn cat, Goldie, was on the other side of the fence, laying there, batting her paws at him playfully. This went on for quite a while and I thought it was so cute.
Time to hay all the horses. I step out of the barn with an armful of hay and the colt is carrying around the barn cat by the scruff of the neck. Goldie was none too happy. Nooooo., I didn't think it was funny, I rescued the cat. I bet it will be a while before she tries to play with Phantom.
Filled all the water troughs, had scrubbed them yesterday, so today I scooped any hay fragments with a aquarium net that I keep in the barn.
Lucy, our tiny premie( doing great by the way!) decides that the trough might be fun , runs over dunks her head in the trough, runs away and comes back and does it again and again! She made a game out of it.
I look around for Firestar, our other premie... he is sound asleep inside the big feed trough( you know the kind that you put hay above)
The wild turkeys came by for a visit today and scared Lucy! They gobbled and she ran and hid under her mother.
I could watch these goofy animals all day.
