Mickey was borrowed a while ago to have a paddock alongside the stallion as he is quiet and will live alone. I did wonder how he'd be on his own- he loves it. No fighting to be top dog, waiting at the gate to be 1st in etc. He doesnt usually need a headcollar in the morning- he goes straight to his field.
Yeti has, however, been a monster. He always turns into a complete idiot (polite!!!) this week every year. No idea why- but he always ends up having a couple of weeks solitary confinement. Only this year there isnt a spare paddock so he has been put in with Mickey
Mickey is disgusted at sharing a paddock and has very quickly put Yeti in line. Yeti isnt allowed a carrot from me unless Mickey has a pile to keep him occupied and even that isnt always enough as Mickey gave him a good belt for daring to go near his gate. Thankfully Mix has no back shoes and yeti's a lot faster
Needless to say Yeti has impeccable field manners at the mo and will go back out with the herd in the near future.
