Tuesday April 10, 2007

Fed the animals and Jarred showed up to work for the day. We moved about 2 tons of hay from a pile in front of our barn to various barns that will need hay on and off through the summer months. I groomed and worked with Big Red, Sahara and Rose on leading and manners. Walked Big Red to the far pasture to return him to the other youngsters. Keeping Rose and Sahara in a pen near the house for a bit - they need daily work right now. Worked with them for a few hours then went in to sleep some.

Seeded pastures (3 of them) and got the greenhouse and garden fence torn down. It was rotting and we have decided that more effective in this climate would be window boxes that sit closer to the ground. One of the female turkeys got caught in her fence and badly hurt. We put her down and slaughtered her. She is in the oven now. I had hoped to keep her for breeding, but she was just too badly hurt.

Fixed some downed fences in the Blue Moon pasture. Tired tonight.
