Bailey had her first full day out in the front paddock. Bigger then the round pen, but smaller then the broodmare field. I think Turk was thrilled to have green grass under her feet.
Ok...so 3:30 this am I was woken up by Duffy screaming and running around in his paddock. Went out to see what was upsetting him and the whole farm was quiet. Just him running around like and idiot.
So I put him in his stall...walked all the way to the barn in the pitch black, went into the barn....in the pitch black...put him away...farm still really quiet. So I went back to bed.
Woke up at 6...peaked out to check on everyone and noticed the broodmare and baby gate was wide open. Errrr.....KIRBY! He undid the gates again....not Kirby proof enough! Found all the mares grazing happily on the field we reserve for injured horses. So of course they were happy as clams with their heads DEEP in soft green grass!
Put everyone back...and locked the gate...AGAIN! as soon as my back was turned....Master Kirby was using those loose lips to undo the gate. Well...now...the gate is triple locked and has two lead ropes hooked in two different directions trying to keep him from figuring out how to undo all this in one night.
Smartest baby I have EVER known. Not bad for a red bag delivery foal!
