Bad girl Cassie, go to bed or you are grounded for a week

I'm back! Sorry we had to wake you Cassie, but we just couldn't understand or see what she was up to!

Here's your Daddy pics Renee. One very tubby, favourite, special, much loved, cheeky monkey who knows he will never ever be leaving my side! Seriously though, I know he's nowhere near the ideal miniature horse by today's standards, but given the right girls he actually doesn't do a bad job! He's 30" to the withers and a great size reducer. So what colour would you call him?

Now I have to zoom off again to do the boys - back in around half an hour!
 
Anna he is adorable, just the way I like them. Mine are all the old type and I must admit I am smitten. As for his colour I am not sure, I am not good with colours at all.
 
Anna he is gorgeous and not in bad shape for a guy out on grass all the time. With that dorsal that is very distinct then I would call him a Red Dun. The white hairs ticked through his coat could be just a sort of sabino roaning. The sire of the Yearling I put up was solid chestnut but had a spray of white hairs on his face and through his body. Prince got a sort of small splodge of white over his left eye and a spatter of hair through him too so its seems to be a sort of minimal roaning probably caused by one of the many sabino genes that they have no tests for.

All quiet with Suzie so nothing dramatic to report

Suzie is down sternal resting at 6.30 and I am off to bed shortly. Have a good day at work Cassie.
 
You are too kind my friends! Actually he has the same personal routine every year - spend the winters in his stable stuffing his face, requiring me to put him out for approx 4 hours grass (he calls it exercise!), equally requiring me to be there to fetch him in again at the first hint of rain. Around March he 'wakes up' - well he starts to - and by April he begins to trot the fences. By May i have to put him out twice a day for shorter periods as he no longer eats any grass, just trots the fences non stop and as he is usually in a 4 acre field he has plenty of fence 'space' LOL! He never fusses, just keeps up a steady trot! Come June he looks gorgeous, totally fit, rounded, no tummy, solid muscles but not thin. As soon as the first week in July is passed, he gives up and goes back to stuffing himself full of as much grass as he can - gotta get some blubber before the winter comes LOL!! He's a creature of habit!

After our little 'worry' last night over Suzie sort of disappearing from camera and bundling herself in her door corner, leaving Renee and I wondering whether she was standing/lying/foaling???/or even cast, she seems to have returned to normal. Now it is morning time and the light is flooding in, she is doing her usual 'I'm restless, it must be breakfast time soon', bless her!

Still keeping her under view though coz you never know............
 
morning all

I will keep an eye for another hr but then must head to my bed.

I have to laugh though when I see you in feeding Suzie as you are like me and out to feed up in the Jammies every morning. I must look so trendy (and sexy) with my big work coat and monkey jammies and mucker boots, oh and bed hair

Do they not even give you a chance to get home for lunch Cassie?? Shame on them LOL!!

Have a good day at work, we will keep watching, although, it wont be long before my bedtime too.

Diane will probably pop in , knowing her, when she gets home, but she will be tired after her active day I expect!

Renee is usually here before I am in the morning, but I'm sure you have other watchers as well, so Suzie is in good hands.

See you this evening.

Hi Diane, glad you got back safe and sound. Hope you are not too tired after your fun day!

Cassie the cam is down and has been for quite a while - or is it my laptop again playing up? Hope all is well with Suzie?

Where is Cassie, she should be home by now? The cam is still down (still dont know if it is my laptop or whether there is a fault with Cassie's end?)

Poor Suzie looks as though she is ready for a rest, but it seems that after she has finished her food and her hay, she is going to be expected to climb a ladder to clean the upper walls/roof of her comfortable stable! LOL!!
 
Ooooo now she has visitors! Are they there to make sure she does the cleaning properly, or are they just calling in to say hello!

Is she ok Cassie?
