Re: Hand Reared Foal
We were concerned for a while that she might have a bit of brain damage as she used to appear as though she wasn't 'all there'. she would shuffle round the stable rather then walk and hit her head on the walls. When we turned her out in the paddock she would just stay in one spot and turn in circles. Now she is much better. Although she is still a bit wobbly on her legs in the stable (especially when turning round) she will gallop round the field like a mad thing and she doesn't hit her head on the walls so much now.
Generally she is much more alert and lively although she does have her down days. some morning i go in to her and she just looks depressed (you can see it in her face). the down days are becoming less frequent now though and hopefully she will have a companion coming soon which should cheer her up!!
