A place where I record the adventures of myself and my Irish Sport Horse mare, Kika. Who I purchased as an un-backed 3yr old in 2007. This blog follows the trials and tribulations of first-time horse ownership since moving from Ireland to Luxembourg in 2010. UPDATE: as of 2013, Kika is being joined by Nancy a Friesan X ISH mare bred by my family who I had my eye on since she was a foal and have been lucky enough to buy and add to my equine family.

Field Frolicking - First Day Out
Quick update to share 2 videos and 4 photos taken of Kika this morning as she experienced her first turn out of the summer with her new field buddy P.
Now for a couple photos
And finally last video
All taken on my phone so sorry if quality not great. Also have no idea how to remove sound so apologies for chitter chatter in videos!
That she most definitely did, thankfully turn out times have been considerably less eventful since - which is great news considering I've been doing so while on lunchbreak or before work in the morning. So I didn't have the time to be hanging around waiting for them to settle making sure they didn't come through the wire! Not an iota of fuss out of them while being turned out since. Last night was their last night in until November, all going well and no injuries this year - cross your fingers with me! :)
Looks like she is having fun!
