Stud Reduction

Due to ongoing health issues, it has been with regret, that we are having to drastically reduce our stud to a more manageable level. We still have some Ponies for Sale.

With both Harry & Ben, having flown the nest and myself unable to show any more, its been quite a heart breaking decision. I will be keeping a couple of Ponies, as I couldn't bear to part with them all.

We have been so lucky that eight of our Ponies, have already found fabulous new homes.

Demetrius, Colossus,Dionysus & Draconius's New Home

Four of the boys have gone to live with Abby & Bex, twin sisters who are totally spoiling them. I've already seen a video, showing that Dionysus has made himself right at home, by wandering in the House and nicking carrots and apples from the Kitchen.

Dionysus Literally In His New Home

The Alpacas at Katie & Jazz's New Home

Katie & Jazz, have gone to live with Wendy & Adam and some Alpacas. The Alpacas were not sure of the Ponies, at first, but they've settled down now.

Evie In Her New Home

Evie, has gone to live with Marilyn and is going to be shown in hand, by her Grand Daughter at some local shows. Hopefully, I will get to see her.

Tiger Lily in her New Home

Tiger Lily has gone to live with our Friends Traci & Jon, at the Raci Stud, where I see her, every time we visit. Traci, is going to show Tigs, so again I'll hopefully see her in the Show Ring.

I must admit, that I've come home and shed a few tears over them all. But having seen where they've all gone and the updates that I get, I know they have all gone to fabulous new homes and are already much loved.

I wish all their new Families, many happy years together. 

Some More Pictures...

Some more photographs of our new arrivals.

First Day Out With Mum..

Yesterday morning, our friend Tash came up to see the Foals. She helped Mick usher them out with their Mum's. Min's Foal was quite happy to stay laying down in the stable, so in the end I told Tash to pick him up. Which she did and carried him out through the gate.
We only left them out for a few hours and then brought them back in to the Stables, where they all promptly fell asleep..

Katie's Foal

Here's some more pictures of Katie's Colt Foal, that I've taken today. Katie is a first time Mum and has done herself proud.
I did have the Vet out this morning, as she had retained the after birth, but blow me down the Vet walked through the Stable Door and she dropped it. But I'd rather be safe then sorry.
We think his colouring is Silver Dun.
There is an ongoing debate, about both the Foals names at the moment. But I'll let you know as soon as we have reached an agreement.
I'm having quite a job getting some decent photographs of Min's Foal, as she is very Foal proud and as soon as I point the camera she pushes the foal behind her..
But I'm sure over the next few days and weeks, I'll be boring everyone with pictures...

Getting Ready...

Just thought I'd better post a little update on what's going on here.
We put six mares to two of our Stallions last year and I know that three of them are in Foal. Katie and BB to Viscount and Min to Kai. I'm are still not sure about Tinkerbell, Lemoney and Tigerlily. They may or may not be. Hopefully, we will have a stress free foaling this year and all the foals will all arrive safely.
Unfortunately, I'm still not well enough to show the Ponies this year myself. I'm hoping that Harry may do it for me, but you know what teenagers are like.

Viscount With His Ladies..

I took these photograph's yesterday of Vikey with his ladies. From left to right in the top photograph is Vikey, Katie and BB.
In the second photograph is Vikey, doesn't he look like he's got a big smile on his face.
In the last photograph is Vikey with all his girls again including Lemoney on the far right..
He is such a gentleman, when we take food down to them, he backs away and lets the girls eat first.
