Little Horses With Big Personalities

Blue and Remy spend each night in the barn, a respite from bad weather and biting flies - and there is plenty of hay to eat:

Each day, good weather or bad, they spend in their corral. It's surrounded by electric fence but they are talented at carefully reaching under the bottom wire to nibble at the greenery:

But I also throw hay in for them so they won't go hungry:

The yellow flagging ribbon was to help them notice the fence when they were first put in their new corral. I was afraid they'd eat it, but they haven't - probably because it carries the electric charge:

They come and go through that section on the right, next to the wooden fence posts. Remy began freaking out and rearing dangerously each night when we walked through it, but seems to be getting over it now because I tie him briefly to a wooden post and give him about 30 seconds to calm down. Then I cover his eyes as we walk through the open gate. He has no problem, however, entering through it each morning:

 Blue is mild mannered and of compliant personality - until there is food. Then he's the boss, and Remy has to wait to eat:

 Remy prefers to steal nibbles of green grass anyway:

 And they both get three open stalls with fresh hay each night. No one is going hungry around here:

They are a beautiful sight from the county road and lots of people admire them:

 I only lead one horse at a time to and from the barn. Remy is always first, so Blue has to wait, tied to a tree, at night while I lead Remy in. Then I come and get Blue. He's very patient now that he has fly repellent on him. Before I started spraying him, the flies bothered him and he wasn't so patient:

Once Blue is tied to the tree, I tie Remy to this fence post temporarily. I have no idea why or how it calms him, but it works:
