Celeriac? | My Shetland

[ad_1]

I spent the morning trimming and brushing the dirt and “paper” skin off what felt like a million garlic bulbs for Turriefield and was given some celeriac to see if the ponies would like it. Apparently there would be more, if they did.

I called the ponies up.

And threw the celeriac on the ground making sure everyone had some.

Verdict – yes, please. They loved it but I wish celeriac were more visible as I ended up picking up all the bits they didn’t see and feeding it by hand. I hate waste.

Tiddles was very keen on celeriac especially when I gave him all the leftovers.

And even Fivla, who finds hard food difficult, managed. This was good to know.

While the ponies were all up from the field, they made use of the water bucket which is odd, since they were standing next to a stream before they arrived.

Anyway, when Turriefield ask, I shall say – yes, Shetland ponies definitely like celeriac and they would be very happy to finish of the winter leftover crop.

I like to know what the ponies do and do not like.

A little known fact, Newt hates apples.
