Rory taking the bucket over to his mum |
Got some bad news the other day. Rory's papers arrived and he didn't get Red King as his registered name. He got Rotkonig (the o after the k is pronounced like the u in burn - it has the two dots over top, but I can't type that with this keyboard). I'm a bit disappointed - I really wanted Red King.
Rory is still a delight. I was out feeding them on the weekend and had a silly moment. I sat his little white feed bucket on his hindquarters. It didn't bother him a bit. Not even when he wandered away from me to where his mum was having a drink. She lifted her head and looked at him with a "WHAT do you have on your bum?" expression. He wandered back to me and she followed, trying to get a look at the thing. It fell off and Rory didn't even flinch.
The other foal bucked it off, twice! He was okay with it until he moved, then he wanted it OFF!
I did get a series of pictures. It's going to make a great page in his scrapbook!
