| Quick question: If you reroll a brindle, the brindle stays, right? |
Morning Frost and Afternoon Sunshine| Embervale Acres |
| Hmm, usually I have good luck getting sherpas close to the capture party, but yesterday and so far today has been a complete bust lol on all my accounts |
| Minerva |
| Im hoping so as I don't think she's ever worn one! She's been indoors with the sheep with her current owner so she might be a bit surprised by outdoor living initially but Im sure she'll adapt. Ive got a little rainsheet that might fit her, plus my friend has some rugs left over from their old shetland that I could probably borrow if I need one ASAP for her. We'll just play it by ear I think |
| Oakmoss Stud |
| Perfect, and I'm guessing she's fluffy enough not to need rugging until we get into the minuses again? |
| Minerva |
| Oh yes- decent energizer and a great big battery that have been tested *many* times by both ponies and me 🤣 I think I might decide based on how stressed she is about being alone overnight. If she'll cope being one end while they're potentially out if sight at the other then Ill do that for a week, if not then they can go next door. Ive seen just lobbing them out and letting them sort themselves work fine- thats how we reintroduced Minnie at my friend's- but if Ive got the facilities to create a bit of distance I might as well. Ted's introduction was nice as he was shut in the field shelter with Minnie grazing the section around him so they could interact but not beat the shit out of each other |
| Ashcroft Park Stud |
| Ohh that’s a hard decision - if you’ve the space a buffer zone might be helpful initially, if you anticipate silly behaviour 🫣 But either sounds great to me, very sensible to give them time to meet over the fence. I’ve never understood people who chuck horses into established groups right away |
| Oakmoss Stud |
| Have you got a good energiser on your fencing to prevent any escape artist-ing? Echoing what Ash said, I have friends who've used transporters both within the UK and from the continent and they've always been fantastic. If anything, the fact that they have no affiliation with your horse can be better, since they don't have the nervous/excited energy that we would when picking them up, if that makes sense |
