    Heehee Fifi. Birdie is correct, it's just the shadow from the fence. :)

    Her nose is darker but not striped though

    Hey Fifi - got the perfect photo of Boris today for you - he has a perfect circle on his cheek!!!... ;)
    But to be factual - was worried about my boy BORIS today - he is usually the biggest "pig" but off food today (and last night), as you can see, emulating a doorstop while Hector eats, really odd for Boris!!! Breathing a little shallow and too regular, temperature a little above normal... Nothing serious BUT reindeer are very odd that they hide illness until they are on death's door. Called vet out, confirmed "slightly" elevated temperature and breathing a little gaspy... he shot him with Draxxin... an expensive drug BUT as far as I am concerned a wonder drug as it sorted Lotte at 2 days with potential pneumonia.. Hoping to have nipped "whatever" in the bud..

    Great photos of Twiglet and Boris! Glad you caught the problem with Boris quickly and hope his appetite is back soon.

    Lotte, Hector and Boris... BUT I forgive you Willow as I don't expect all to recognise who is who!!! ;)
    Twiglet is in the "Rutting" paddock - Boris is babysitting Lotte and Hector! (lotte is Twiglet's daughter and similar coloration)

    Oh yes Boris appears to have an orb like feature on his face lol. Seriously though, I hope he is going to be okay and the 'magic shot' has done the job! What really worries me though Karen, is the size of the kids round your way. I mean, whoever kicked that ball into your field must be flippin' mahoosive....xD xD xD

    It's the babys' toy - I purchased it for them, cost a fortune (£85) BUT don't tell hubby. It's wonderful 40" and extra strong, designed for shod horses (complete with cover) took 2 hours to pump up with 2 compressors working in relay (they overheat running constantly). They and Boris play with it but only usually dawn and dusk.

    Well better overheated air compressors than an overheated set of lungs! xD

    I had a horse that played with a slightly under-inflated basketball. He used to grab it with his teeth and shake it! :p

    Pleased to report Boris is not only back to his normal "piggy" self but I am blaming him for the deflation of my Jolley Mega Ball... It has been fully inflated for weeks.... No pointy antlers in this paddock AND only one fat lump of a reindeer - he must have been sitting on it or else not playing nicely....
    It is designed for horses with metal shoes and an awful lot heavier than my reindeer!!!

    Thank you Wolf for support (i love to share my babies & think others are enjoying their story too??)
    It's sharing the videos that is the pain... Does anyone know if it is possible to upload directly from PC or Facebook or do I always have to upload to Youtube first???
    This is Monty (the rutting Bull being sweet - there was one trying to dismantle the style) but I just chose one to upload to Utube..

    Fifi,, another one just for you!!! ;) It appears that Mischa has a wonderful checked colouration in her coat... or it could be the dodgy photographer (me)... Picture 1
    Picture 2 is my first attempt at a Christmas collar for Hector - I didn't want to overburden him with bells. There are lots of little bells but only 6 large ones... I think he needs more and he doesn't mind at all ... so off to order more BIG bells :)
