Okay, I didn’t post these on IG because they get cropped all crazily and I didn’t want to take away from the photos. My Appaloosa, Monty, taken by our amazing friend, Victoria Mannina. I couldn’t choose a favorite!!!

Bubba was loving his spa experience 😂♥️

We’ve had to play a lot of “horse Tetris” lately, trying to see who best gets along with who, and where… Monty and Mardi seem to be getting along swimmingly!

Melly-Mel got his first full-body clip and haircut of the year… he has GOT to feel better! It has been so hot out.

Free composted horse manure. Contents are horse waste, pine shavings, hay, and wood pellets.

No smell and great fertilizer for a home garden!

There's a tractor on the property that we can use to load trucks or trailers. Smaller containers welcome but you'll have to load your own. Message me to set up a time.

Will deliver by the truck load within 10 miles for a small fee.

In case anyone wants baby chicks, I hope you know what you’re getting into.

Our sick Isa Brown made it through her crop surgery last night! This is only the second time I have ever had to open up and flush an impacted and sour crop (it is ALWAYS a last-ditch effort when none of the other treatments are working). It is one is the worst smells I have ever experienced and I had to turn my head and block my nose with my arm a few times while I was working on her.

She survived the night and actually ate a little of her food this morning— very soft, very well-soaked chick food— and is now having a supervised stroll around the backyard. There is really nothing better for a chicken than to go outside and do chicken stuff. :-)

This is one tough bird, who previously did not have a name— but she has certainly earned one! Well done, Percy. ♥️

A later night with Mel’s abscess (pictured with his matching fly mask, muzzle and Cinderella slipper) and Clifford’s swollen eye (and his excellent fashion choices). Everyone is fine, but we were definitely cutting into Vinny’s beauty sleep.

Now, off to treat a chicken with an impacted crop… 🤪

Looks like the Easter Bunny made a pit stop at MBF! He left a basket of goodies for the horses. 🐰🥚

And part 2! Unfortunately, Instagram cuts the pictures off so some of these are cropped a little strangely. Photos by Victoria Mannina

Victoria took some photos of Hollywood and Clifford ♥️ (Part 1)

We have a couple of full-care field board openings for low-key geldings (or a mare if she’s good with a barn full of boys 😂)!

Muddy Boot Farm is a small, 10-acre private boarding facility that is family-owned and drama free. We specialize in aged and retired horses, but we do have a small outdoor arena and some trail ride out. While we may not be fancy, we offer excellent care and have several references (including veterinarians and former boarders).

All field board includes a run-in shelter (most fields actually have 2), twice daily grain including owner-provided supplements, hay as needed (our current field boarders have a round bale, which is provided if there is not ample forage otherwise), blanketing, fly masks/spray, etc as needed in the season.

Cost is $425 per month. Please send a private message for more details. 😌

Wow! Check out these incredible photos taken by our boarder, Victoria (aka Vinny’s mom). Aren’t they gorgeous? (As are the models, of course 😉)

I’ve seen a lot of people looking for farm help. While I can’t help you with the “thumbed” variety, I do have some excellent supervisors!

A family photo so we can introduce some familiar faces! From left to right: Chris and Allie (feeds, stalls, farm maintenance), Nicki (horse care manager), Tim and Brenda (farm owners), Ben and Julia (property maintenance as needed). Thanks for supporting our small business! ♥️

Our little egg rainbow! 🌈❤️

Please consider getting that extra boost-- we did the horses here today!

07/04/2022

Anytime we lose one of our horses, Chris makes a sign out of horseshoes to hang on our fence. Tonight, we noticed that our "Moe" sign is missing. It was relatively heavy (being made of metal horseshoes), so it didn't blow away.

It says "MOE" spray painted purple with a red heart underneath of it, with hooks on the back so it can be hung over a fenceboard. If it was stolen and someone happens to see it somewhere, please let us know. It has a lot of sentimental meaning to us and we'd really like to have it back.

The slowest game of “halter tag” I have ever seen 🤣

It's okay, buddy. We feel that way too, sometimes. 😚🤣

Our Quality Assurance Manager has some complaints. #excuseme #thisbagisempty

Our Mille Fleur D'Uccle Booted Bantam hen, Butterfly, is hatching her babies today! She is so sneaky about finding places to hide and hatch. We will have to rehome them, as we have a lot of chickens as it is. They sure are cute!
