Stormy was coming up on seven weeks old and had never been out of her paddock and the adjacent paddock. We figured it was time. So we locked the herd in the eastern pasture, opened the gate from Mustang Paddock to the western pasture, and right out they came.
But with all that space, Saffy chose to stay near the other horses. As we keep discovering, in the battle between being alone and being with, genetics always win. Even over worry.
Why is there always a fence Mommy?
Why is she taking so many pictures?
Lots of attention from the peanut gallery.
Here’s a short video clip of mama and baby having their first pasture romp together. It’s the first time Saffron has had a good run since she arrived. And she can’t keep up with baby :)
First Romp in the Pasture for Saffron and Firestorm
Awww i bet she had loads of fun exploring the new pasture, and momma probably enjoyed a good stretching of the legs too. Its always fun to watch the babies explore their new surroundings!! Great pics!!
