The herd got in some pregaming before the fireworks tonight.
Good luck to everyone at Tri-State All Morgan Horse Show this week! The show is being held at the beautiful World Equestrian Center in Wilmington, Ohio. Although we could not attend this year, we are happy to support the show through sponsorship! Watch until the end. #morganhorse #hollowpeakstables
Willie (CBMF Crown Prince GCH x Burkland Annie Oakley by SpiceOLife Present Tense GCH) was feeling good this evening! Lil man is ready for some play time with the big kids but he's not cleared just yet. We enjoy his independent spirit. #hpsregalreflection #morganhorse
Reba and Willie came home from Equine Specialty Hospital on this scorching day. We took them back last week after Willie displayed lethargy, decreased nursing, fever, and a bout of diarrhea one evening. No infectious source was identified. Lil man is quite the mystery, but doing well! They got a thorough cold hosing when they got off the trailer and we let them stretch their legs in the dry lot. They will be turned out separately for a week or so until we repeat his blood work and his medication course is finished. Again, we are so thankful and grateful for the staff and veterinarians at Equine Specialty Hopsital for their excellent care of Willie and Reba. Breeding and raising foals is not for the faint of heart.
We love watching our babies learn to eat. Willie is all about the feed (for a few minutes). We prefer to use buckets below wither level to simulate a more natural eating position and we take them out after feeding. #hpsregalreflection #morganhorse
Lil man is growing up! He is smart, independent, and sweet. We will post his name announcement this week! CBMF Crown Prince GCH x Burkland Annie Oakley by SpiceOLife Present Tense GCH. #morganhorse #colt
Lil man started showing interest in feed this week and was eager to check out his new bucket. Reba is a very patient momma and allows lil man time to experience all the new things. #morganhorse #colt
We are having so much fun with our lil man. He is laid back and outgoing, and we are quickly building trust. We put a halter on him for the first time tonight which went very well. His motto is "Here for the scratches." CBMF Crown Prince GCH x Burkland Annie Oakley by SpiceOLife Present Tense GCH. #morganhorse #colt
As amateurs, we highly value good dispositions in our horses. Lil man has opened up in the last few days. We love his curiosity and are working on building trust. We are almost settled on a name.

Reba and lil man went outside for the first time this evening. He is learning to follow momma although his curiosity is blooming. We are enjoying being a part of his learning experiences. CBMF Crown Prince GCH x Burkland Annie Oakley by SpiceOLife Present Tense GCH. #morganhorse #colt
We are incredibly thankful for everyone at Equine Specialty Hospital for the outstanding care they have provided Reba and her colt over the past few days. This little guy is thriving!
We changed stall assignments so these two are no longer side by side. The nice weather means the herd has been outside except for feeding times. These two always find each other to show some love. #hpsforyoureyesonly #hpsrisingup #morganhorse #yearling
