With Sheena and her colt now stalled Eliza and Mara were put together. Eliza is such a kind mare and will show Mara where the best grazing is in the pond pasture. I was pleased to see them grazing together not long after they were introduced.
William the farrier came today and trimmed up Whitney, Mara, George and Valiant.
As soon as he finished with Whitney, she and Hadassah were loaded up for a trip to Hoerr Vet clinic where both were confirmed in foal by ultrasound.
Above is Whitney, below is Hadassah
They are due exactly the same day April 5th, 2017. The sire of Whitney's foal is Valiant while the sire of Hadassah's foal is Evan.
The other part of the day was the morning spent at the Berean office. We had quite a day there, more than usual amount of mail that just couldn't be processed before lunch. To read about our morning there click HERE.
This evening Mark took the skid steer over to mom's to help load gravel for the retaining walls Tim is working on. Mark had been mowing when Tim called for help so I took over the mowing and that will be the last time I do that until we get something on that mower to stop the grass from blowing straight into the face. We are both covered in grass clippings.
The last job of the evening was to clean Sheena's stall, fill her water bucket and give her another load of hay.
