Monkey see, Monkey do...or should I say Horsey see, Horsey do!

Sophie, aka The Brat, has a very bad habit! That habit is carving totem poles out of our new fence posts in our new paddock. This is very annoying because we built it with our own bare hands. The line of hot wire doesn't even keep her away. She still manages to find away to chew on the tops of the post and avoid getting zapped. It is times like this that I wonder why is it that I spend most of my hard earned money on these animals. Just so they can destroy all of it! To make things worse, Cody has now decided that this is a fun past time too!

All the horses are on a great feeding program and have access to various salt and mineral blocks. In addition, they have jolly balls and other toys in the paddocks to keep them busy.

Watch out my little brats, if this keeps up I will fix you all...I will put a grazing muzzle on you that way you will still be able to eat hay and grass but you will not be able to eat the posts.

I will keep my fingers crossed that it is only a phase that the yearlings are going through.
