Happy Christmas from Mawcarse Archibald and all the other ponies at Browside Shetlands. We hope you all have a fantastic Christmas and New Year.

The first of our female Shetlands has arrived. We are proud to introduce Parlington Kitty. Our daughter will be showing her next year. She is a friendly, happy and confident girl who loves to be around people. Thank you Diana and Wilf for all the work you have done with her.

Our Mawcarse boys got to meet each other in the same field at the weekend. Here is a video showing their antics when they met. Afterwards we let all the ponies mingle with each other. This video shows Mawcarse Ernest (Ernie), chestnut c**t foal; Mawcarse Archibald (Archie), black 2yr old c**t; and Mawcarse Edwardo (Eddie), chestnut 2yr old c**t.

We've allowed the Mawcarse boys (Ernest, chestnut foal; Edwardo, chestnut 2 year old and Archibald, black 2 year old) together for the first time today. This...

Collytown Moritz having fun in the snow.

We moved Mawcarse Edwardo (Eddie) and Archibald (Archie) from the stables into the neighbouring field to the rest of the ponies yesterday. We've had quite a lot of snow over the last few days. It will be the first experience of snow for lots of our c**t foals. They all seem to be managing okay in it. Collytown Shetland Stud Foxsedge Shetland Ponies FoxHills Stud

It is a cold snowy morning at the field but Fox, Silver, Mario and the rest of the herd, including our future Bombproof Ponies are all okay. They came up to see us despite the dark and the subsequent flash photography.

27/11/2023

Mawcarse Edwardo (Eddie) - chestnut - and Archibald (Archie) - black - have arrived safely. They are both chunky 2 year old c**ts. We'll get some better photos of them in the daylight at the weekend.

26/11/2023

A few photos from this weekend. We are looking forward to another two faces arriving tomorrow with Mawcarse breeding.

21/11/2023

We will soon be getting two more Mawcarse Ponies. They are now two year olds but here are some photos of them whilst they were still at Mawcarse Shetlands. Introducing Mawcarse Edwardo (Eddie) and Archibald (Archie).

Had a trip up to see the ponies this evening. They allowed me to take a few flash photos of them. These are the ones that came out best. They show our gorgeous ponies, Tawna Mario and Mawcarse Ernest.

Some photos from our time in the field yesterday. We've lots of lovely characters that can't wait to greet us on every visit.

This afternoon we also let Foxsedge Shetland Ponies' Corinthian - Fox - join the rest of the herd. He is the red dun standard. He has joined Tawna Mario (miniature skewbald) and Collytown Moritz (miniature bay) - Mo - who we let out this morning, after their trip North (from the South West to the North East) last night. They in turn joined Bobby (blue dun), Mawcarse Ernest (standard chestnut) - Ernie - and FoxHills Stud's Utopia's Silver Cloud (standard grey) - Silver. They all seem to have settled really quickly into their new field. Hopefully they'll appreciate the field shelter and more appropriate grazing. We feel confident that we'll have at least one miniature and standard stallion amongst them and some great riding and driving ponies. They will also be joined by the Cobs and Fell that you can follow on Browside Bombproof Ponies once they've had some more handling.

Tawna Mario (mini skewbald) and Collytown Shetland Stud's Moritz (mini bay) have joined Mawcarse Ernest (standard chestnut), Utopia's Silver Cloud (standard grey) and Bobby (blue dun). Foxsedge Shetland Ponies' Corinthian (red dun), known as Fox, will join them once he has settled in and been handled a bit more.

Our next group of foals have arrived safely.

03/11/2023

We've put the Shetlands out in their new field today. Looking forward to the others arriving later today. They were delayed by a day due to the storm.

01/11/2023

Our next group of ponies are due late on tomorrow after a long journey. We can't wait to meet them all. There is the stunning Miniature Shetland, Tawna Mario, shown in these photos. Journeying with him will be Collytown Moritz and Foxsedge Shetland Ponies' Morpheus. We are looking forward to introducing them all to you.

It is moving day! We've just had Bobby, Mawcarse Ernest and Utopia's Silver Cloud (from FoxHills Stud) for a mile and a half hack to their new home. Silver was a little fun to catch but they were all great on the hack. Only some dogs in a yard caused any upset. They are stabled next to their new companions. A couple of mini Cobs and a fell cross. You can follow Frodo Baggins (Blagdon), Womble Orinoco (Grey) and Aragorn Strider (Black/Brown) on Browside Bombproof Ponies.

Mawcarse Ernest, he is so confident and cheeky. He likes to investigate everything - that's what he was up to in the first photo. He is a cracking pony with so much personality.

29/10/2023

Utopia's Silver Cloud has arrived. He has already made friends with Mawcarse Ernest and Bobby. Thank you FoxHills Stud for a wonderful pony. He has settled in already. He is Ernie's shadow!

29/10/2023

Arriving today from FoxHills Stud is Utopia's Silver Cloud. We can't wait for him to arrive and are pleased that Mawcarse Ernest (from Mawcarse Shetlands ) will soon have another foal to play with. We are expecting a number of arrivals over the coming week. It will be great to get the family together. We are looking forward to seeing how they develop and selecting our stallions to be. The others will be brought on as riding and driving ponies as part of our Browside Bombproof Ponies.

The Shetland that started it all, Deneside Magnus (Corky). Here he is shown at 5 months old. He started a life long love of the breed.
