First load of hay this summer. Horses, sheep and goats are loving it

Found this little guy out in the yard following the Guinnea Fowl around early last fall. Picked him up, brought him inside and did some research.
This is a domesticated pigeon that must have been released or flew off. It took us 9 months to get to this point, he basically hated us for the first 6 months. Pigeons are flock animals and do not survive solo in the wild, even if he was a native breed, but he has adopted us as his flock, and has become very affectionate and loving.
P.S. He is wearing a flight suit, so I don't have droppings around the house. He adjusted to it pretty quickly, and it is a game changer. Also, the dogs and cat that live in my house know that if any animal is brought inside, you don't bother it, whether it is a weak chicken or any other animal. It is just what it is.

Thank you for the visit Ava, and for all the lovely pictures of some of my fur family

What do you do when you are a little pig during a solar eclipse?
Why, you go to bed, crawl under the blankets with your sister, and go to sleep of course.

Let your horses be horses.

Let them roll in the dirt and get muddy.

Let them bask in the warm sunlight on sunny days, sunning their coat as they nap in the dirt with friends.

Let them play with other horses, they may get the occasional nick or scratch but their mental health can remain unscathed.

Let them stretch their legs and romp across ground without being under the control of a rider, let them control their pace and buck and play.

Horses don’t care about what brand of blanket they wear, how expensive their saddle is or how neat and tidy their coat is.

They don’t care about appearances, they don’t care about monetary values, they don’t care about status…

This is a large part of why we love them so much, they don’t judge like humans do. They are so much more simple in that way.

Let your horses be horses because there is nothing more breathtaking than a happy and fulfilled horse.

Let your horses be horses and they will thank you forever and you will be able to get to know them in ways you did not know possible.

Hay in the horse barn, I'm not happy about it but glad we were able to get overflow from in the hay barn. Rough year for hay making, with all the rain we have had this summer.
This sweet ole girl looks pretty damn good for 27 years young. Such a lovely ole girl.

The sunflowers are so pretty this time of year.

Henry is so gentle and loving.

It has been almost 8 years since we moved here. Follow your heart people, and live out your dreams.

My goal is 3 sink fulls per day till the garden greens are gone. Been at it a week so far. These go in the food processor raw and frozen for animal food during the winter.

A wee snapper that was resting on the center line of the road. She was helped to the ditch where she will hopefully continue on and live a long happy life.

A walk through the yard this morning.

Another turtle post.
"Stumpy, as we affectionately call her, crosses our driveway every year to lay her eggs. She is easily identified by her missing back leg. Such a beautiful girl.
Stumpy is a Wood Turtle.

This beautiful big girl chose our goose/turkey yard to lay her eggs.

Everything is growing.

Started these Fava beans in the greenhouse this year as they need a longer growing season then other beans. Love trying new and different garden babies.

Bedtime for a pair of sweet piggies

02/03/2023

These guys are in the workshop too
-42 tonight...brrrr. They will go back out the barn tomorrow.

02/03/2023

Had to bring these guys into the (heated) workshop for the night. Those temps outside are brutal, and these guys would have struggled to hold their body temperature. Pig house is insulated, sheep have lots of wool and are tucked up in a stall for the night, the horses are in the barn with an extra roll of hay, and the chicken house is very tight.
Hank and Cheryl (the geese) do appreciate the fresh water, they just aren't good at showing it. Lol

Just in from tucking in 2 cuddlebug pigs. So cute I had to snap a pic.

If anyone has any old blankets they would like to donate to keeping a pair of piggies warm this winter, we would happily accept. Last years have been shredded. 🐷🐷
Daisy and Violet love curling up under a big pile of blankets in the winter.
