Her hindquarters are still catching up, they're still so tiny! She's turning into a very sweet and kind little lady, although there have been one or two cases of the kevin's every now and then, she learns quickly and I never have to make my point twice. She is now very firm buddies with Inca, they graze happily nose to nose which is always lovely to see :smile: and quite frequently pegging it round the field having lil pony races :yellowcarded:
 
Wow she really has changed so much from the before pictures! She looks like such a lovely little cob now, much more meat on her :) She will be fantastic! Well done to you x
 
Amazing difference B n P, although she still looks as though she needs to grow 'into herself' a bit and I am sure you understand WHAT I mean by that :bounce:

The difference in her condition is amazing she will be fabulous when she matures a bit more, they seem to hang onto those 'Bambi' months:bounce:
 
Thanks guys, I'm so proud of her! :biggrin:

FL - Totally agree, she's still very "fugly", at the moment she has these weeny hindquarters and chest but a big head head and a wide barrel. Although I'm glad to see her neck looks much less pitiful.

Sparklie - I think the light colour in the summer pics is due to scurf and dirt. Her skin was in pretty bad condition but she scrubbed up well after a bath and although it was a real shame to take all her mane off it's growing back all the better for it
 
She is lovely and i was going to say the hindquarters need to catch up which is often the case with these little ones.

Well done with her, you should be proud!
 
What a difference - in such a short time too. Well done, I think she will be a beautiful cob when she has eventually grown into herself.:biggrin:
