I'm currently working on this website, trying to clean it up a bit, and hopefully I will fix those links, or even finally get a proper website. Anyway, the horse you see above on the History page, or foal, I should say, is our 2011 baby, Bella. She is a purebred Andalusian, out of Fenda and Luca. She is now 5 months old, and she's currently greying out. Anyway, we have a new arrival coming tomorrow. It's a black Andalusian colt, called Tigre. We're looking forward to adding him to our herd. I will get photos when the weathers cleared up a bit. That's all for now, it's late, I'm tired and I have to be up early.
Oop's! I should have mentioned that sometimes I forget to update.
Raine is so much better, she's filled out nicely again, not skinny looking anymore! And Breeze has also gained weight!
Raine's still in though, due to a sore from her rug. So she's being treated, but I'm very happy it is healing well.
Well, it is 03:44AM and I am quite tired, but I am dying to do some photography! I won't get any good snap's until next year! It's just to muddy to trudge through the field. Although with the lense I have, I could just stand out on my new balcony and take photo's from there!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is the 3rd year anniversary of Fenda and Breeze's time being here! I can't believe it, it feel's like I have owned these two for year's.
They have changed so much! Especially Breeze. She was a nervous wreck when she first came to us, it took 5 of us to get a headcollar on her when picking her up from the farm we got her from, and then 4 hour's to load both horses. Crazy. And it was bonfire night! Both horses were fine though, didn't bother much with the firework's at all.
Heh, anyway.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, it's October already, I can't believe it!
First of all, an update on the horses.
Raine started to lose weight, she was wormed, and then 2 weeks later she was recomended to have a 5 day wormer.
She still isn't putting on, so we called out the vet.
She had her tetnus (As it was due that day) and she had her blood's taken. And can you believe it? Breeze went lame the same day, and was put on bute.
We had the blood results back from the vet, and she has a high white bloodcell count, which mean's she has an infection or inflamtion in her body somewhere. So she is now on anti-biotics. She has been doing well, eating good and everything. We're going to have another few tests done on her, to see if there is anything causing this loss of weight. She's keeping it on thankfully, but it's just stopping her from losing that little bit more. All the other horses are doing fine, and Breezy's a bit the same, but they are both yearlings and so that's why we thought worms. So basically it might just be that. The vet has also recomended another type of wormer, which will go for redworm or something, I can't quite remember.
All other horses are well, I'm just worried about what to do with them on bonfire night, I might have to move them into the back field, because next door always has fireworks and they will be able to see, and sometimes the bit's of firework land in the field next to their's, which my mares are kept in at the moment.
Then there's the house.
The 2 top floors are basically done, and they are on the second floor, plastering and putting the lights in. We're waiting for the balcony steel to be delivered, and once that's done, we can crack on with ripping plaster off downstairs and re-wiring everywhere.
The kitchen should be coming soon and then there's alot more to be done. I know it won't be totally finished before christmas, but they will be back to do the outside and my stables, and hopefully I can have my arena!
That's all for now, my year hasn't been to great, more has happened but if I type it all out, it would take absolutely age's to read.
