Little ponies don’t like snow

pony - snow bibby

Our mini-ponies are out during the day but run to come in at night when the weather is bad.  The snow has come suddenly today and at first sight of it the ponies were waiting at the gate.  Let me in please!   This is Bibby who went straight in to her stable and deep bed of straw and pile of hay.   Little Dorrit was in next, these two will share a stable, they are good friends.  All our ‘tinies’ are in at night, ponies with little legs can’t get around so well in the snow and could get chilled.  If they went down they could get pneumonia.  We like to see them inside and warm and dry in winter.
