Now you could buy some new blinge or feed supplement or...help these ponies

When we are worrying wether someone has had a EDT or, or buying some new bling or what new calmer to feed please think about these poor ponies.
They are basically being left to die from lack of food, all the welfare agencies know about them but there seems to be little they can do and the people who 'own' them seem not to care.

Forget the bling, buy a bale of hay.

Aw poor ponies

Pity they aren't closer to me, I have a few big bales of haylage I could let them have. Sadly not much cash though.
When will people stop breeding and creating these awful rucks of ponies no-one wants.

you have hit the nail on the head.

Truly awful situation.

I think saying they have been bred shows thought, they have been allowed to breed because seperating the colts and castrating them is too much trouble.
More worrying is they seem not to want to stop people trying to feed them,now that cruel and perverse.

If you read the pinned post at the top of the facebook page they have been trying to do something since January and some have been removed by Bransby and the SWHP but there are now more foals being born to undernourished mares

Does anybody know if they're being confiscated or left to breed?

 

[honetpot]

I think their main concern at the moment is immediate as the very ill ones are dying, the continued breeding is a long term problem which really can only be tackeled by the Welsh authorties.
If you want to take one they have taken off another commen

They are not making any money out of this, a castrated colt is £80
