Hobson is 20 weeks old now and at the Rod Stewart in the 1980s stage of mane and forelock development!

Look who I went to see this evening!! Not-so-baby now Hobson/Hobnob the #FellPony.
He is besotted with my dear friend Ali who bought him just as he should be, but I don’t think he has forgotten his first human mummy 😍

Baby Hobnob/Hobson has found a halter going on quite challenging and we could only do it when he was very sleepy and relaxed. Have spent several days building up from sniffing the halter to having it put on 👍

Should’ve called him Hagrid: look at his beard! Baby Hobnob/Hobson is nearly 8 weeks old, and his new mummy (my dear friend Ali) came to visit him today. He’s also had his first dose of wormer. #Fellpony #RareBreeds #nativepony #smallholdingdream

Today a 40-year old dream came to fruition and I finally got to actually ride my very own Fell pony: Lily has been at boarding school since weaning her foal in November being “started” (trained to be ridden) and today I went to collect her and have my first sit on her 😀

Hobnob’s first bath!
A red hot day is perfect because it probably feels rather nice to be cooled down! Mum
Lily had left him sleeping in the sunshine 🤦🏼♀️ so I’d had to bring him in anyway and we decided to introduce bathing after showering Lily off to cool her down.

Oh Lily, what a big tummy you have!#Fellpony (with torchlight on her bum, not a fat Appaloosa 😂) at 320 days gestation - the “safe date” when the foal should be viable (tho it’s c3/52 to go till she is most likely to foal)
Now “just” need baby safely on the ground & it and Lily healthy 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

No baby yet…. But if she has it tomorrow it’ll be an ace birthday present!
#LilysFoal will be a pure-bred #FellPony, an ancient rare breed from NW England whose ancestors (the Galloway) worked as pack animals 1000 years ago. Breed info: www.horseandhound.co.uk/features/fel...
