i've always had ponies together too, never had one on it's own until now. it was a sudden death so didnt have anything planned. our paddock is only pony paddock size & not alot of grazing. my 2 always had ad-lib hay both in stable & out in the field shelter & hard feed so wasnt a...

hi i have a welsh section A foal who is not quite a year. I got him in november last year, he was unhandled. he had a headcollar on but hadnt been lead or anything, barely touched. the owners had rescued 8 from the meat markets. anyway, i had him with my old boy & they were good company for...
