Hi, Iv recently bought a Gypsy Cob filly. I don't know her date of birth but we guessed she is about 5 months old. When we first got her home she had no idea what a bucket was never mind the food in it, she also had no idea how to play, whereas the other filly on the field doesnt no when to stop . But since then we have been with her everyday, and she certainly knows what a bucket with food is now, no doubt about it!! She is slowly getting the hang of playing I catch her every now and again playing with the other filly. She has also learnt that if she comes to us she will get a good scratch and she LOVES it! We have only been able to scratch her for about 2 week. She has come so far since we 1st got her home! Im soo proud of her!
Of Course lol.. She really smells at the moment tho because we got her out of a shed with about 5 other foals. But we'r just about able to get a headcollar on but until then she's going to have to smell lol.
She wasnt skinny or anything she's always been a chucky monkey but I don't think she was ever treated for anything, worms etc. but she's worm free now. The previous owner just put them in a shed and left them with piles of hay. She was basically a wild foal when I got her. I think they took her off her mum too soon aswell but I don't know for sure. But it doesnt matter now because she's got someone who loves her. :)
Thats good, especially since the other filly is so freindly, it's a monkey see, monkey do thing with horses, so she will learn to love humans in no time =)
