Autumn is the time to start the youngsters and this autumn is no exception! Rögnir, Kóngur and Fönix are at the stables, but Snerpa and Magnús went to Melgerðismélar today, where they'll stay with Ásdís Helga for training. Snerpa is starting her career as a riding horse (she got the basics last autumn, but we skipped mounting and riding as she wasn't ready for that) and Magnús will get some further education. Looking forward to have a look when they have been there for a while.
Rögnir will get his basics  that is getting used to be longed, learning what he's supposed to do with the bit in his mouth and bearing a saddle. Kóngur and Fönix will be educated further after rehearsing what they already learned. These two will be back inside in January after a Christmasbreak, but Rögnir will get a year off and further education next year. But first of all they are going to meet Vignir the vet, who'll check their teeth.
Bjössi fetched Vordís for me today and after a whole summer with Óskasteinn and not getting in foal I have little hope she'll be in foal at all. But we'll see. Keeping our fingers crossed!
