Well sort of.

I put all four of mine together for the first time on Monday evening. Always had Talis and Dinker separate from Patches and Tweenie. Stems from when I had two other mares as liveries and Talis being a tiny weanling. Felt he was too delicate to be around shoe wearing, foot wielding, stroppy mares.

Was quite worried about how they'd all settle, especially Tweenie as she can be a bit of a madam.

Don't think I need to have worried. This is the sight that greeted me this morning. Excuse the quality, I'd zoomed right in on my mobile.

Patches was lying down when I went across but got up when she saw me.

Removed overnight rugs and then Tweenie and Talis shocked me by showing what good friends they are already!

Of course, Talis hasn't been with a mare since he left his mother. I think maybe he has a long memory.....

Didn't want to miss cutie little Dinker out.

bless patches watching over the little ones in the first picture think somebody wants a foal to protect lol :P
 
He's grown so much! Youngsters do need to go out into the big wide world and learn how to cope with older/bigger horses, they will teach him so much, you'll be amazed.
Are you showing him again this year?

Why does the little one have a flower pot over his mouth?

Tweenie and Dinker both wear grazing muzzles in the summer. Dinker had previously had a severe case of laminitis before I owned him. I've had him three years this July and ****touches wood**** he's not had it yet with me.

They're greenguard grazing muzzles. Only difference is Talis kept chewing the leather straps on Dinkers so he has twine holding his to the head collar.
