Jazz Arrives!

Well our little stallion Jazz (his call name) arrived safe and sound today. He had a 4 hour trailer ride to get here, but was in great spirits and very happy and healthy when he got off the trailer.
He is such a little doll. He is very friendly and happy to be with people and horses a like. He is not pushy or aggressive, but is assertive and will stand up for himself in the group if he is being pushed around.

Phoenix is the dominant mare and pregnant to boot so she was a little fussy when he arrived. She knows that he is a stallion, even though he does not know he is and is not in a breeding mode yet. She wants him to know she is the boss and she is pregnant..so stay away!

Cricket, who is not pregnant and is always nice to new horses got along well with him. She is very gentle and did not try to be pushy. Won't they have gorgeous foals together?

Ace was just so excited to have a buddy who is his age. Jazz is 1 month older than Ace, however Ace is already much taller and bigger than Amigo. It looks to me as if Ace and Jazz are planning some kind of mischief to get into already!!!!

Kiwi had to come by and see who the new guy is. They were both very gentle when meeting and it went very well. You never know how a horse will accept a llama, but Jazz was awesome!

Just running around the field, being a little guy! Misty sniffed him once and went on her way to go munch on the fresh hay we put out. She is a bit standoffish. She is pregnant too, so she was neither happy or sad to see a stud. Buckleberry pinned his ears, tried to bite once and then got over it. He generally is a laid back guy, and just wanted Jazz to know he is BELOW Buckleberry in the pecking order.
