I'm really bad at posting on my pages, but tonight I have to post pics of an exceptional 23 year old thb, and a 21 year old thb.
Honour the Guest was a grade 1 winner and is in weekend work but just blossoming.
Apologise was bought many years ago from Gary Matodes who owned Camelot Riding School. He is fully retired.

Nothing like a capriole in the rain from 23 year old Honor the Guest, to start the leap into 2022.
Wishing everyone leaps of joy and happiness ❤️🤗

On hot days, well every day in summer, our horses get watermelon after supper. Once everyone is groomed and temped, buckets of watermelon are carried around and fed with great excitement. I love it 🦄❤️

There was a post recently regarding how difficult it is for passionate grooms to say goodbye to 'their' horses. I think this picture says it all. 🤗 One of our babies leaves tomorrow for backing xx

In winter we have a use it or lose it policy with our grazing. Where there is grass we build camps using our solar energiser.
Some really happy horses today ❤️

Today we had a roughage building competition. In fairness, I was busy with other things, but apparently I lost 😂😭😂😂😂
Their one. My one
Mine is the ingenious triangle to stop horses throwing the roughage out 😂
Theirs is the perfect square that is in alignment 👌

I've been told before by prospective clients that my yard is too big and they don't like to walk to fetch their horses. Well, Kathy just calls her two youngsters ❤️

And just like that, the farm went green ❤️

There are a few horses that I have cared for for a very long time ❤️ Hunter is one of them and he walks up with Gussie and Billy and then his lead is tucked in and I call him and we walk to his stable together ❤️❤️❤️

The more they eat, the more they poo 😂😂💩 This is a never ending chore 🙄 if I had known how the guys had packed the bakkie I probably would have driven a little slower 😂😂

I am grateful for many things in my life but my carers consistently outdo themselves by just going above and beyond. It's almost 10pm and my first night shift has been assisting my all night shift with blankets for the outside horses who were too warm to be blanketed earlier.There is rain coming early morning. First night shift and poo check carer is supposed to finish at 8pm.

The oldest horse on the farm, our darling Jinx ❤️❤️ His knees were injected this week to help them bend, and he gets bemered every night to keep everything moving. We have almost lost him a few times but at 40 plus, he still escapes from his paddock and goes for walks, he still breaks into our arena during lessons to 'help', and he still has so much character and life ❤️💜

Carrots are very boring and apples aren't great for horses, watermelon season has ended but BEETROOT season has started 👏👏 all our horses love raw beetroot. It is high in antioxidants, vitamins and minerals and fibre.

A giggle this evening as our first night shift dished out some soaked cubix and speedibeet to 4 of our toothless wonders at 18.30, the day shift asked what is that meal called because they already get breakfast, lunch, supper and late night.... We decided it is called dessert 😂😂😂
Feeding horses who have limited molars isn't easy, little and often and roughage that is small enough to smoosh without too much chewing.

There is always a Tikki to make life better ❤️

Goldmark Farleen, 18 years old and loving life ❤️😍 My mission is always to make the horse the best version of itself. They must feel good, be happy to be ridden, happy to play and happy to express an opinion 🤗😍

Our stable block at 4.30am. Listen with sound 😂❤️❤️

We really do have beautiful horses ❤️😘 this is a 3 year old warmblood who spends 3 month out of every 6 months with us. His friend, companion and playmate is 18 year old Mr Personality 😍

While some of our horses love the midday sun, there are others that I know battle and their willing carers take them into the dam to cool off ❤️❤️
