Photos of the blooms are stunning! The barn isle looks like it's waiting for me to come over for a cup of tea! As to Fiddle - sounds like she's doing just Super! Temp. is always the first indicator & as long at that stays good & the eating, drinking is going on - more poo will surely follow! :-)HHmsteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16129136410081149976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899388425248595265.post-48509092416448331162012-04-30T17:10:47.670-07:002012-04-30T17:10:47.670-07:00Poop is a great sign!!

Really,...I cracked up reading your poop discussion. Really, most people won't discuss it at all. Hell, even with most people I won't discuss it at all... but with other endurance riders I find myself in long discussions about all functions of the horse, including poop. Hell, even this weekend I found myself asking the rider behind me for 8-10 miles if she had seen Rose poop and if so when and how much? When she and I swapped I share her geldings poop report and we watched the other rider's horse's pee for any unusual color. Only endurance riders get excited about poop... and pee.<br /><br />Lovely splat looking pile of poo though. I'm sure that was your favorite pile to shovel in quite a while. Hope the rest of her recovery goes well.Caitlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05459999598962107210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899388425248595265.post-82727180983201099052012-04-29T18:03:40.048-07:002012-04-29T18:03:40.048-07:00Aarene, you have no idea.

I mean with my bare hands (don't tell). That's how obsessed I was.Laura Crumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15200878892304748308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899388425248595265.post-52375589009082294382012-04-29T17:59:44.942-07:002012-04-29T17:59:44.942-07:00Poop is a horseperson's best friend . . .Poop is a horseperson's best friend . . .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899388425248595265.post-82249298885743117502012-04-29T17:53:45.919-07:002012-04-29T17:53:45.919-07:00True, not a lot in the "volume" departme...True, not a lot in the "volume" department but she gets good marks for consistency and texture (judging by photo anyway), not too dry or too runny!
