First Feeding

This morning was my first day feeding the ponies... well, it would've been if my partner wasn't crazy and had been there since 7:30 LOL He had given them all grain, trucked the hay to the paddocks and was just bringing the first ones out by the time I got there. Oops.

But we don't have a set time for feeding, so technically it wasn't my fault LOL I will be much earlier on weekdays though to make it back in time for a shower and getting ready for class. I got to take out a few of them to the pasture. The last one, Zipper, is quite tall and I went to take his halter off and he flipped his head up out of reach and acted like I was the boogie man. I tried scratching his neck, his head, eating hay (the horse that is), etc. but whenever my hand touched the crown piece of the halter his head flew up. So rather than risk any accidents he had his halter left on LOL. I will have to find out the trick to getting it off from his owner, as my barn buddy had already left by this point.
