I’m having breakfast and looking out and watching the two foals (baby horses) play. One of the foals is a little non gilded foal and can run like a race car.The little fillie tries to out run him but is unsuccessful and the two slip and slide in the mud. They are so beautiful.
Their mothers are very pretty but when they first came they did not look so good. They where not fed properly and looked unnurished. Well months of feeding and care they have fat little bellies and are so happy. We will keep them to gether as long as they nurse and they whin on their own. We think one of the mothers may be having another foal . We hope not because it is to soon after her little philly. When she came to us she malnurished and looked pitiful but now she is so beautiful, but looks very pregnant.
Animals are so wonderful. I have yet to see one mistreat their off-spring even thought they them selves have been mistreated. Should show mankind something. Again so many things I learned for caring for neglected animals.
For instance, one of our horses is named My Lady. She came so pitiful that I cried each time that I looked at her.We had to take our time and make sure we would not over feed her and let her rummage through our yard and eat a little grass. She never ever showed any aggression. When I would walk she would follow me and put her big skinny head over my shoulder and just walk with me. She never pushed or complained about her feeding. Whatever we gave her she was happy. It took time for her to come to us in the beginning so she was stalled and when we saw she could trust us we let her roam the grounds around the house, I gave her the name My Lady because she came to be My lady. Her and I grew to love each other and trust each other .She would hear my voice and slowly waltz over to me. Her legs were lame because she was tied with wire and had no were to walk, not even back and forth in a stall.They were so crooked that I always worried she would trip over something. You might wonder why did we not put her down. Well I felt if she could eat she could live. I wanted her to have a few more days or month to live like a Lady. She did and lived with us for three and half years.
Will continue later on bye for now.
