Lady's Pony

Early Saturday morning we heard someone knocking on the back door. Chuck found Bryn on the porch asking for help. She said that Lady had a baby and they couldn't get the baby to eat any grain.
What excitement!
Lady is a mustang horse that Uncle Reed bought years ago at a BLM wild horse sale.
She has been in our back field for several years eating the pasture grass. This is the first pony she has had (in captivity at least).
The grandkids are quite sad that Hirschi's get the pony and not us. Richard's stallion is the daddy of the pony so that's why they get her. Who came up with that rule of doing things anyway? Just so Reed and Richard are good with it I guess.
Back to the grain story. I think that Sara was in the field trying to get Lady to come eat out of the grain bucket so that she could get close enough to identify the sex of the pony. Being the protective mother, Lady didn't let Sara or the kids get close.
