The snow came last night with a few inches. Tonight, we are suppose to get up to 6 inches more. I get supplied up and stay in most of the winter. Only going out to feed and to the store if I run out of stuff.
Did Janelle do any breeding with Tuffy this year? He sure is a beauty. How is the rest of your herd doing?
Stay warm and safe with the additional snow coming. I was talking to my neighbor across the street yesterday and she’s had to put two blankets on her horse to keep him from shivering. Right now, ours are still without blankets. Very wooly and they make sure to keep dry. They probably have an inch of dirt on them too. Bob keeps a real close eye on them, especially since Mandy lost the one.
Tuffy was bred to two mares this year. One is a red roan spotted mare (looks alot like Dusty Rose) and the other is a perlino appaloosa. She has had three foals, one palomino and two buckskin. No color and bred to Tuffy’s sire all three times. We are hoping for a loud palomino or buckskin - big blanket or spots.
We are down to five horses, Prez, Indy, Lace, CJ and Friday. Right now, they are just getting fed - no work. It’s way too cold and exhausting in the snow.
