Week 6 pics

Benhorse is in full moult, and after looking at him today I'm thinking I might hop on in a few weeks. So will start out leading him off Oscar for a bit. Of course that means I have to ride Oscar which could be interesting given our last sproing at the forest.

Ellie's boys are up here now so there's been a wee reshuffle of paddocks - Tai and Spyke are in the driveway paddock (Benhorse's old paddock), and Benhorse is in a taped off part of one of the cow paddocks with Bert who is having a sleepover for 2 weeks until his new grazing is ready. Everyone seems ok with the new arrangements except that I have to separate Bert and Benhorse otherwise Bert pushes Benhorse away from his feed and Benhorse doesn't even attempt to assert himself over Bert. So Benhorse is currently eating his dinner while Bert gazes at it longingly over the hot tape.

Onto the pics!

He's looking a bit like a broodmare right now with his flabby belly but once we start some work he should tone up a bit. Not that I'm complaining about him having a flabby belly!
