Not A Beauty Contest Winner This Morning!

[debris4spike]

He had taken advantage of the rain to have a good roll - so he was looking more like a "Bog Monster" than a cute pony today!

I brought him in and he ate a little bit of hay while I stared to grrom him.  I couldn't give him too much, as he was going to do some work, but it had been an awful night for him - gale force winds and torrential rain, so thought he needed something to make hime feel a bit happier about life!

Toni rode Smudge and led Junior; and we only went up the road and back ... Nice it was no longer frozen, but it was now raining ... at least the wind had dropped off a bit.

He then had a bit more hay and a feed when he came back, before going back to his very muddy home - and his friend, Conrad, of course.

January is a miserable month!

Glad that DJ got a little treat.

Normally January is a favourite with DJ - lots of mud, but it was so wet last year he hasn't got much grass ... still his wasteline is looking good!

Bog Monsters and Dust Storms

We have the exact opposite at the moment with Dessie looking for the best dust hole to roll around in, the sheep makes some real good ones for him!
The hotter the day the more time spent covering ourselves with dust :)
And of course he always waits to shake when I feed him talk about a dust storm :)

In the summer, DJ waits until he is hot and sweaty before he rolls ... not so much fun if he doesn't look dirty, is it!!!

Glad the sheep are giving Dessie lots of places to play!
