Halo joins the herd! She's no longer isolated
Got Halo into a paddock with Penny, Ruby, Ava and Dyani. It was not eventful. She led well once we got her out of the yard. She listens to me.
It's a relief for her to have company. It's not good for a horse to be isolated.
She is wearing a fieldsafe halter! I will take it off tomorrow or the day after. I want to catch her a few times with it on in a large paddock before relying on catching her without one.
Fun fact: I bought pink feeders as no one else at the agistment had them and I wanted to keep track of them.They also stand out, so are harder to lose in the paddock!
A lovely girl with her young gelding helped me get her out of her yard. She put some pressure on from behind while still holding her gelding. She was so scared of moving out of her yard. Once we got out she was really good. She was hesitant to pass the stallion, but she trusted me and I led her past him. She was very brave. This lovely girl followed us the whole way with her young gelding, so we had company. Halo didn't respond to following him.
She did get scared of a clump of hay on the ground and spooked and I lost her, but she didn't run away. I caught her and we proceeded. The next time the hay was not so scary and she went into the new paddock with no fuss. In fact she followed me after I'd taken the lead ropes off.
She's already the boss mare of this herd - no surprises there.
Penny is a 14 3 hh stock horse aged 28, Ruby is a 3 yo Arab - 14 1 hh at a guess, Ava is a 2 yo brumby (caught from the wild) she is approx 13 hh, Dyani is Tuppy's baby and is 14 3 hh? yearling (an incredibly placid horse).

I have 9 horses and care for a 10th. I enjoy looking after them. Most of my horses are horses no one else wanted. I love them dearly and try to give them the best lives possible horses can have within the confines of being in human care.
