Penny and Percy are doing well. They are going out in the school for a few hours today. I am hoping to let them into the paddock for a few hours tomorrow, Thursday and Friday, with Saturday being the grand meet Lily and Ruby day!
Percy had to have his bum washed yesterday as he is scouring. He wasn't best please and ended up falling into his water bucket, where he got stuck in a sitting position like a dog. poor thing! So I pulled him out sharpish and he continued with his antics. We got it done eventually! I bought an exfoliating glove from boots that gets the dried bits off a treat! He now has an exfoliated bum, nicely slathered with Vaseline.
Penny is having more to eat now that she is lactating. She'll soon be back up to what she was having in March. Obviously when she goes out she will have access to really good grass so that will make her feel good. i am pleased to say that she looks fantastic and appears well and happy. She has really taken to her motherhood role.
NEWSFLASH
Mark asked me if I would like him to go up and see them tonight while I am at work!! We've had a break through! He LOVES Percy and wasn't very happy with me when I told him about the bucket incident! So he is going to feed them tonight for me and give them extra water. Wow - I never thought that this would happen.
I'm off to see them now for some more bum washing. Oh and poo picking the paddock!
