Thank you.
Topper's trying, and I think may be annoying the mares a bit. 
I think Misty is now out, but Sophia and Bonny are in.   Now to wait for Tana to come in, then after I hopefully see evidence of that, I can pull Topper back out and put everything and everyone back where they belong.   ;)

Waiting on Tana to come in, unless she's been sneaky, as I have not seen Topper even look twice at her in the last 2-3 weeks (however long it's been that they have been together).
I'm ready to put the horses back in their regular paddocks, and go back to simpler chores.

If you were wondering what this means...   Putting Topper out with 4 mares, means 3 girls are in two different pens to make separation for feeding easier for me.     When Topper is in his pen, all 7 girls are in their pen; so just two pens to feed, instead of 3.   
 Come on Tana, talking nicely to Topper and get this last ball rolling.
I have at least one date on the calendar for each mare to maybe have a more specific timing for potential foaling, but as Topper will only be out with the mares for about a month, it's only a month window to consider anyway, which narrows it down less than all summer turn out.

TANA, give us a sign so we know that you've been sneaky, or let's get this done!!!  We want babies next year!!!

I think he might be looking at her, but he's enamoured with Misty, so keeps going back to her.  It'll be interesting to see how many take.

I haven't seen much flirting with Tana, but I'm ready to put everyone back where they belong and simplify my feeding routine, again.   And, we'll be harvesting pretty soon, so definitely want it back to "normal" by then.   I think exactly one month will be tomorrow from turn-out day, so hopefully he had enough time to get them all; but just two would be fine, so I don't have an only foal, two is easier in many ways.

I had to trim Dolly's hooves today, and since I took her over to the mare barn to be out of the wind, I'm putting everyone back where they belong tonight.   Dolly is still in the barn to recover from her Dorm gel; which didn't work as well as usual today, so guess it's time to give her a higher dose again, I had backed off while she was doing well, but she's back to being a stinker.   And, I moved Belle in with Bliss, so all I need to do tonight when I bring the girls and Topper in, is pull Topper and put him back in his paddock (if I can get him into the upper alley, I won't even have to catch him, just close the alley panel behind him, then open the outer gate and let him move across on his own).   It will be nice to be back to "normal".   Cross your fingers Topper got everyone; I saw him actively pursue 3 of the 4 mares; I don't know if Tana didn't come in, or he just wasn't as obvious with her.   They were together a good 4 weeks; July 28 or 29, until tonight; so should have been plenty of time to catch everyone.
