Hello everyone,
just thought I would say hello, and introduce myself to this great site.
Anyway, my name is Joni (said like Joanie!!) I'm 25, married with 2 kiddies, boy and girl 20mths and 4 years, couple hundred ornamental chickens and bantams, and my 2 lovely mares.
Blitzen, is 15.2hh Welsh D x 5 year old chestnut mare. She was origionally running with a herd of local wild horses, and I have had her for 3 years now. I have broken her myself, and she is the kindest sweetest mare I have ever known, and very keen to work. She has just done her 1st dressage test, and was placed 2nd, which I was over the moon with.
Honey is 15.2hh dark bay, approx 8 years old and is of cob type, with something finer along the line....possibly TB. She is a fairly recent addition, and was amongst the same herd of wild horses. She is proving a little more difficult than Blitzen, most likely because of her age. However, she is still a very sweet little mare and coming round slowly. She will happily lead now with headcollar and leadrope, loves a good groom and lots of cuddles.....just very nervous.
Anyway, think thats enough for now....I was going to post a piccie of both, but can't seem to do it....if you want to see them, they are on my site in the chicken section!!!
