Early Spring at the Barn

 With Diablo and Trouble in new homes, Abby has become the alpha of the herd. 

Here she is leading everyone up to see me and clearly telling Hokey that he is to stay back. ("Those are MY treats she's holding!")

The herd has wintered well and especially enjoyed the addition of grain to their diets in January. 

Not atypical for spring, Abby has a bit of a weepy eye that I am watching. But besides that, she and her herd mates are doing well.

Dolly has settled in and she is the horse with the lowest status, but she still gets her grain and her treats. (She's a sweet mare.)

Early spring is wet and muddy, but we are glad it is here.
