Tucker stuck in the “bedcrack” 🙄

Things happen for a reason, Rosy (thats on a diet) snack out to the others, so Tom went to get her. Found Tucker rolled up against hay ring. He just got himself in a bind, but if it haven’t been for Rosy, hed been there all night while his friend been eating.

…Living and dying with choices others made…”

Loki first one in from pasture

Rest getting closer to barn for the evening feeding, but Loki parked himself already at spot. Despite this was his first time out with all on the 30ac pasture. And just a reminder to yall, this is a Oregon born BLM mustang that ended up at Bowie shipping pen

Horse Time - its not a time zone, its a whole different measurement that fluctuate. Its heart beats, breaths, experiences, situations and a lot of “nothing” …..

Had a interesting moment with Loki today. His first day with the big herd started very un eventful and smooth, late lunch feeding all got to go out to the feedlot together. Loki is complex, scary-cat, brave, bully, lazy, smart, pushover, just all together shifting from second to second… Well he is food aggressive too, and that the big herd put and end to quickly. He stood an hour by himself at the barn. I walked up to him, asked him to follow me, so he did and we sat off to the feedlot and round bale, the “little” scary-cat right behind me. On our way out to find a free spot at eat at a couple of horses gave the stink-eye, but gave way to my mare stare 😂 left him there to eat. After another 30min eating i pushed all off the feedlot, sat down for a cup of coffee, and look who seek my company, Loki walked up to hang out with me for a nap 🥰

Boney the wrangler horse for the day 😍 A year later now and we can call him fully recovered and with a balanced health. Its time to decide what his job shall be, to start working a bit with guided trail rides, or find a home where he can make a kid very very happy! He is absolutely the best kid/lesson horse we have here

Baby it’s cold outside! ❄️⛄️

Many people think of donkeys as hardy, low-maintenance “small horses.” However, while they have similarities, donkeys are a completely different species and as such have a different physical, mental, and emotional make-up.

As the weather gets colder, it’s important to remember that donkeys are more sensitive to changes in temperature than their equine friends. They don’t grow a winter coat like horses and their hair is less waterproof, so they require shelter from the elements (like a run-in shed or a waterproof blanket). Being stoic animals, they also won’t show signs of discomfort and hypothermia until they are very sick.

Remember that every animal is different depending on age, breed, and other health conditions, so be sure with your primary veterinarian to address any concerns or questions!

he idea that any horse with colic must be walked is a persistent horsekeeping myth. But the truth is that walking a colicky horse may be helpful in specific situations. And at other times, it could make the situation worse.

Gradually we are getting Freyas hoofs fixed up. Likely she foundered at one time. Got a pretty decent handle on her now. And she is just soooo sweet 🥰
