Well our little baby is growing like a weed! She is 1 week old today. She is a very busy and very cheeky little girl!
She is learning to wear her halter and to stand quietly to have it put on. She is not too fond of wearing it yet, but she will learn that its all part of being a horse! She is pretty good at having it put on for the most part, but sometimes she can be silly about it.
Pheonix used to be an overweight mare.....not anymore! Her little one is keeping her on the move! Phoenix has never been a fan of exercise, especially running, but she is doing a lot now! She actually looks very good and has slimmed down a lot.
More exercise. And they are not even out in the BIG field yet! Oh boy is Pheeny going to hate running around the BIG field after her little one! This weekend hopefully we will have it set up for them to go into.
After all that work its time for a snack. Pheeny is very protective of her food and shares with no one....except her baby :) The little one has a couple front teeth now so she is just learning to eat hay and grass and the occastional oat. It is an incredible amount of work raising a young foal and at times they make you want to pull your hair out! But for the most part it is fun, exciting and rewarding. The next little one is due in 6-8 weeks....
