Farthings Farm Meraki Stud
Blog of show prep, showing, standard shetlands and native ponies.
First time on lunge with rider on board. 🖤🤍🖤 Time to get this one ready to begin her riding career next season.
Also Daisies first ever trip to the beach, she was so good considering her greeness. .privv_17 beautiful mare 💕
Dustys first trip to the beach under .grace04 I just can’t stop looking at him he’s so lush I’m obsessed with him.😍 He is going to be fab once fully mature. And he took his first canter all in his stride clever baby. 👏🏼
New Tailgator for the breed show 💙
Sam absolutely loved riding to the village seed swap station/library on Dusty this morning .🥰 He took his carrot seeds to swap however he decided he absolutely could not part with them 🥕🥕 yet he really wanted the sunsflower seeds that were there 🫣🌻🌻Thankfully I’ve got to go to Mole Valley to grab feed so can pick something up in there to put back in there on the way past. 😂😂 Read a couple of books, had a in depth discussion which courgette he was going to choose and that was that. 📚
Lovely Sunday morning chilled morning showjumping at Worlington Riding Club. Sam and Duds did a clear round then the 45cm where they bagged a 2nd and best member💙🎉
So far Sam and I have managed to get 4 ponies exercised between us 💙 Team work makes dream work 💕 Just Willow to long rein.

So today I just felt like a bit of calm was needed so boxed up and set off to my happy place 🌲🌳🌲🪵….. admittedly Sam and Dusty probably not the calmest of combinations but nevertheless pony or child didn’t put a single foot/hoof wrong and we had a lovely relaxing afternoon the forest searching for grufalo characters.
Bit of work before the Shetland Performance Show next week
Evening foal smoooooches
Quality 2yr old c**t for sale.
Trythall Fire By Night picked a 3rd up at the . Really chuffed as was only going for a bit of education for him.
🚨SOLD
Tyderi Peregrine. True to type, oozes bone and a proper leg in each corner type. Super chunky 2 yr old c**t currently standing at 37.5” but bum high and about to shoot up. Very flashy eye catching chap. SA clear and both parents hair samples on file ready for easy licensing. Based in Suffolk. Up to date with vaccinations and just had clear worm count. The only reason this smart chap is for sale is because I have decided not to breed from my coloured mare this year and pursue her ridden career next year so it’s not really fair on him to keep him in entire with a yard full of mares I’m not getting any action. Equally, I don’t really have a need for him gelded as Sam would already be riding the other coloured in the classes that he would be in.
A brilliant afternoon at the The East Anglian Shetland Pony Group show today.
