Oh, I'm gonna give her time off to rest. I just meant it's a bad situation no matter how you look at it. She's sick and off but when she's well and hasn't been rode awhile will I be back where I started? That's what I meant about not being rode not good for her. Okie seems good just sluggish and not his usual self. I'm going to talk to the vet monday about what he can do right now.
Are you getting in the saddle in the pasture? I don't until mine are out and away from the other horses. I just walk swinging the lead rope. Sarah Lee and Okie have learned it's not for them. The geldings know I'll use it and back off. A few of the mares will challenge me though and I have to keep an eye out for them and keep making them get out of the way.
