The importance of heavy duty, 6 foot fencing with mustangs 🀣
The HD gate hung 6 ft tall was kicked off its hinges, luckily I had parked the wheelbarrow there last night and it didn't fall all the way down.
The economy blue panel apparently was CRAWLED UNDER?? Luckily I learned this lesson years ago, and I only use economy grade panels for interior division.
Ultimately, no one escaped because this isn't my first mustang jail break attempt πŸ˜… BUT this is why you need to use heavy duty fencing.
(It's mud season, but they have several dry places across their paddocks)

The straw is down and I think they're liking it πŸ˜… saw several naps earlier in comfort 😴

It never gets old πŸ₯° when they trust enough to come over for hand-feeding with Positive Reinforcement training.

Huckleberry (Devil's Garden) is 11, was only rounded up in Fall, and has only been here a little while. We use mostly Positive Reinforcement here, so sometimes that can take a while (other times it takes a day πŸ˜…) but slow progress is fine by us.

Outside leading practice with Calliope (High Rock HMA) who was 10 when I got her last year πŸ’• she's probably the smartest horse I've ever had, and I love making progress with the slightly older mustangs.

Welcome to the Ranch, 11yo Devil's Garden gelding we are calling Huckleberry πŸ₯° he looks a little raggedy with his winter coat covered in spring mud, but he's coming around. He came to us with one ear, though there's the cutest little nub left on the driver's side.
