Hay Day!

Now that Destiny, my sister's bratty appaloosa mare, has gone back to mom's house, the boys can hang out together. After irrigation and being locked up for a week, the boys were happy to be let out and into the dog's yard to eat the real tall grass.

Helping Bijou

I decided that I should help B out a little. He has very sensitive eyes so he always has to wear a flymask. He was so wooly his facial hairs would rub off underneath his mask and get into his eyes. So, I decided to shave his face, as well as a bridal path, that way his mask would fit better. He's a pretty cool color. I also filed the front of his hooves to help reshape them back to how they should be.

Meet Bijou

Ok, I'm a little behind with my blog, so I figured I'd update you. Austin was feeling a little restless and disappointed that he was the only little guy around and word got to me that someone was giving away a free mini to a good home. After some persuasion from my mom, I called the lady and long story short, Austin got his buddy. Bijou, or B as I called him, is 15 a year old, very hairy class B mini, and has foundered in the past.
