It's that time of year when mummy is mean!

Unfortunately for my big greedy food loving horse, it is that time of year again...small paddock, limited grass and electric fencing.
He has freedom in the winter of his entire 2 and a half acre paddock over a period of 6 months but now I have had the field harrowed and have put up the electric fence to separate off a much smaller area and he was none too chuffed when he went out this morning!
No doubt I will get a few comments from some of the locals as I usually do...but he has about the size of a tennis court to mooch about in and three huge haynets in his field stable...not that they see it like that!
What a mean mummy...it is so hard but for the best...so my vet keeps telling me!

I'm mean too then! I keep telling her its for her own good but i don't think she believes me!
I know what you mean about the locals, I had a conversation with one man in the village last year and he managed to say that I was mean for my horse not having any grass and that didn't I realise my horse was too fat into the same sentance.
