Wanda and Cactus were weaned on Sunday night, Cactus went in the pen with Aguacero and Caramia where he settled immediately. As you can see I've had plenty of help to halter break him! He bounced up to Mark "hmmm big and bright orange... are you my mum?"
Wanda went in a stable, because the other three are so friendly she's been prone to hovering behind them and acting a bit shy. She has now had the ignominy of wearing a catch rope for a few days, the other foals are laughing at her and Arrayan is helpfully removing it through the stable bars. Talking of Arrayan, do you notice anything in the "bum" shot, yes not much difference in height is there and Wanda is, oh just over 5 months old. I no longer "do" big horses so she is for sale. (Please ignore the fact I'd been "itching" her and had raised a lot of dust!)
Its nice to have the foals in and get them looking clean and shiny before they go onto new homes.
First to leave will probably be Caramia, little miss take photos of Meeeeee!

Your babies are beautiful! I also prefer the shorter more compact horse. Of course, I am also short and compact. Ha ha.
Funny as the years go by , many of us are looking more favorably on the "closer to the ground " ones They look great
