No not real snow, we're tired of that stuff. In fact, we've had a spurt of warm nice days, which has gotten everyone feeling good. Even the ponies, who are running and bucking with spring fever. We just hope it lasts.
My little pony seems to think these warm days mean it's time to shed the heavy winter coat. When he grows his winter fur, he looks more like a polar bear than a pony. And when he sheds it, it looks like it's snowed in the barn.
I spent an hour brushing the fur off him yesterday. He's not even finished shedding either. He's just begun. I could probably make a whole new horse from all the fur he drops. I just hope it stays warm so he doesn't freeze his tail off. It's not like he can glue the fur back on!
Does anyone else have a pony that sheds this much?
