Ginger! When you gonna have that baby?????

Ginger, was in the arena on Sat. for some exercise, That she wasn't do much of........until, her pal Rumtata, showed up!!! Rummy decided that the two of them should play 'keep away' from Kathy & Steve!!!! Prego Ginger was 'hoofing it' pretty darn good there for awhile!!! But she is, as they say, 'ready to pop'! So we didn't want her to run too much!!!!
Finally, they gave up! & Steve brought Ginger out, & Kathy took Rummy to the hitching post for grooming. Ginger is a 'kill pen' rescue from Shirley Puga, & a few posts back, we told how Steve (Safe Haven's Horse Transporter) & Marlene, (Shirley's Horse Transporter) had to find out the hard way that Ginger was not halter broke, & DID NOT KNOW how to lead!!! So they backed her from Marlene's trailer into Steve's trailer! Steve says she road backwards the whole way home!!! Our little prego girl is back to her old tricks & doesn't want to go forward!!!! So Tracey, our Appy aficionado, is trying to lure her forward w/ a bucket!!! BUT Ginger says if there was sumptin' in that bucket, I might consider it!!! LOL!
Steve now decides to try the old standard & back her in!!!! Not working so well either!!!!!!!
So Bonnie joined in, to help. & finally with the two of them they succeeded in getting back in her pen!Steve is 'camping' out in his trailer this week, so he can keep an eye on Ginger &&& the other mare we have that is pregnant!!! Mello, a quarter pony, blue eyed, cremello/palomino paint! I'll do a blog on Mello soon! She's a cutie & very popular w/ My Granddaughter, Lydia, & Safe Haven Sponsors & Volunteers!!!
Will keep everyone up to date on the progression of the PREGO'S!!!!!!!
Bye for now,
Linda C.
