Unfortunately Worm made a sudden turn for the worse at around seven last night (loss of co-ordination and balance, followed by laboured breathing and occasional seizures) and passed away at about ten-thirty. It was very sad, especially with her having been to active and healthy right up until early evening yesterday! You can read about it here http://www.backyardchickens.com/t/665560/possible-epidemic-fatal/10#post_8989155. I'm worried that there might be some sort of illness that my chicks are getting as the illness and death progressed almost identically to how Wriggle died. I don't have any chicks that I've hatched left now.
Anyway, I just got back from my first riding lesson... trying to conquer my fear of riding (not afraid of horses... just of riding, or more accurately, of falling - I took a bad fall a couple of years back and didn't have a chance to ride again for about six months... by which time I was terrified). I think it went quite well, I managed to get on and off the horse a couple of times, riding around the arena too. It's strange because before I fell, I was a reasonably decent rider... the teacher was a little surprised that I knew how to steer a such, although I was petrified when I had to turn or when the horse made an unexpected move!
Good that you found them.
