Winter in New Zealand - what are you all doing with your horses?

Hi everyone,

I'm sick of the rain and cold, and just wondered what you are all managing to do with your horses at this time of the year.

Bonnie's foal Aurelia is now five months old and growing rapidly, eating "like a horse", I'm running out of hay, and I hardly get any time to spend with them due to working pretty much full time.  The paddocks are mud, the horses are covered in mud, it's dark early and I hate being cold and wet!! Grumble grumble...

Aurelia is an almost four month old Kaimanawa Pony x Stationbred filly.  We think she's going to be a buckskin, but we're still waiting to confirm that as she keeps changing colour!
