We were heading out for afternoon barn chores today when we saw our blind foal Cash mowing the grass in his own unique way. We kind of wondered how the grass was getting clipped so far from the corral panels. Most horses will stand at the edge of a corral and stick their heads under the bottom rail to eat the nearby grass. Cash, who is completely blind and has never seen other horses do it the "normal" way, figured out another approach. His way definitely has its advantages!
And when he’s finished — which can take a while, since he likes to snooze off and on while dining — he just slides himself back under the corral panels.
Here’s a 40-second video I shot this afternoon.
