Penny has started to get used to the idea of coming in at night. The first night she paced the box like a demented animal, but she now settles down within half an hour of coming in.
Yesterday she cut her off fore leg, on the inside just above her knee. She has taken a chunk of skin out. It doesn't look too serious. She has been dutifully purple sprayed, so hopefully that will keep out any infection. I will have a look at it again when she comes in tonight. It has filled a little bit this morning so I must just keep an eye on it. I have the vet coming next week anyway so if it gets worse then I'll ask him to look at it.
She looks to be eating more of her hay at night now which is a good sign. I have slightly increased her chaff ration again because she is not having 24/7 grazing. She is out for a minimum of 12 hrs a day though so it's not too bad.
