Today I did some shuffling. This morning Gussie got snarky with Happy and as she jumped out of the way she skidded on some ice so today became moving day for her. She now has access to the foaling pen which includes barn access, as well as the adjacent pen which has access to the automatic waterer.
She was quite willing to go in the barn and check it out.
Awful photo, sorry!
Gussie and Velvet have full access to the shelter and the winter pasture and the other side of the waterer. They also have a brand new round bale to eat. However, they are Not Happy that Happy has their favorite pen!
Happy is quite unconcerned with their drama.
Wide load!
She is starting to bag up and baby is still quite active so she is on track to be 4 to 5 weeks away from foaling.
She seems to be quite content to not have to deal with getting chased out of the hay.
Velvet is the most emotional about being separated from Happy. I reckon she will just have to get over it.

Mare's expressions are the best, aren't they? Probably why I like them so much more than geldings.
Yeah they have facial exprssions down to a science! Makes sense when you think about their evolution; why put effort into it if they can get a result with just a snarky face!
You were smart to remove and protect her. She has fragile cargo on board—which also looks quite big!
Happy looks content with the new arrangement!
Happy looks happy! Hope all goes well with the new arrangement and the other girls get over their snit!
