But winter just barely got here! This is Sydney's by the way. Speedy G hasn't yet started to shed.

My guys have been slowly shedding since just before the winter solstice. I'm not complaining -- I want winter gone!

Wow, that's great. Harley is still holding on to his coat pretty tight.

Since winter never really arrived, I don't blame the ponies for shedding already. I've been riding in t-shirts for weeks!

My guy is shedding too. It always worries me because I know the cold nights are not done.

In Colorado, my guys started sheding in late January (like clockwork) and it kind of freaked me out because it was still SOOOOO cold. When I did a little reserach I found out that sheding/coat growing is completely related to the length of day. I thought that was interesting.....

I know they shed according to increased daylight hours, but it just took me by surprise. Shedding means spring is approaching and we never even had winter! Comments are closed.

About the Writer and RiderI am a lifelong rider.
I began endurance riding in 1996 where I ultimately completed five, one-day 100 mile races, the 200-mile Death Valley Encounter, and numerous other 50, 65, and 75 mile races. I began showing dressage in 2010. Welcome to my dressage journey.
