Wed. Dec 23 2009 Managing the Herd











Managing the herd is an important part of the sanctuary. The animals are watched daily to make sure everyone has a chance to eat, drink and rest. Horses are put together as their temperments allow. What works one week doesn't always work the next.





Sometimes health or feeding issues mean being put in a separate place. Sometimes, a fella just wants to feel special, like Quincy. He put himself in the barn for a great breakfast without having to share with the herd.




Today we moved Dancer and Pilgrim to a less muddy area. Levi and Daisy were glad to meet new friends.





The minis have their own turnout because of feeding issues.










Of course the calves have their own place because they are small.























Thank you, Sharlene K. for your most generous donation. Your gift will help feed the horses for many days.
