Merriewold Kandie and Mia, new friends

Diana — Wed, 22 Sep 2010 14:02:57 +0000

We just weaned Mia (Rosevale Leggo x ABL Morning Star)
and brought 2 year old Kandie (Rosevale Leggo x Majesty My Fair Lady)
over from Rancho Arroyo Grande to be her new pasture mate.

This will be Kandie’s second weaning duty…she helped us wean Latte last year.
Now Latte and Legacy are pasture mates.
We knew that Kandie was sweet enough to do this job again.

For more photos of the happy girls you can go to either photo album
