Volta’s weight for January
Although Volta has not put on any weight his overall conformation has changed. Volta has definitely thickened , in his neck/crest,rump, legs and girth. His temperament is just beautiful, he loves to go out in the paddock but he just adores coming back into his stable.
Volta happily eating, this is a good picture showing how perfect his conformation is, except for his very short tail!
