After another Bounty's leg injury - the 5th this year trying to get to the mare in season next paddock I decided to move my horses to another agistment without mares at all. It's been such a tough year looking after Bounty's injuries. This time it was a muscle tear. He became the stud muffin of the place, all mares after him. Well mate, party is over now, sorry to tell you Bounty... I had to put him on an separate paddock until I could organise all the moving. Too many mares around, mares in foal and so forth and the presence of constant visual stimuli it's no good for him. The spring grass makes them all a bit frisky too. James - the 25yo horse, has been crying for his mate but they'll  soon be reunited. I'm so tired of all the hard work with them. When the Xmas holidays come this year I'll be wanting just sleep. Arnica gel is very good for bruises and small lacerations, quicker to absorb in gel format so I have been using that and vet is coming soon to see him. It should be the end of it now I hope...
