Ha! Was browsing through the breeding forum (randomly as dont come on here too often anymore), and got such a shock to see this thread has been ressurected! 
SusieT FWIT the mares were both on soaked hay and on a small, fairly bare paddock with just a mug of baileys stud balancer. I was also bringing them for walks in hand as they were two right lazy lumps. I had also been lunging the dark grey initially. Genuinely I was trying hard to control their waistlines (weight taping like a looney every week and writing it down)... Anyway, its hardly relevant anymore as thread is so old, but felt need to emphasise my efforts.
Both mares foaled easily and were super mums, here is a pic of Pearly and foal at their first show last year at the start of June 2011
Lovely pics btw Waterborn and g16, esp LOVE the pic of the perlino, such a stunning action shot!

Yes sure do still have him, he has turned into a right little bruiser! V well mannered though, he has been stabled at night all year so has been handled a lot and is very quiet. Am actually hoping to bring him back to that show pictured above in a few weeks and show him as a yearling colt. Not sure how he will do but will go for the experience.
