Wire up. Now??? Plug in charger dead 3 solars but 2 need new batteries....3rd charging. They are not as strong a hit as the plug in and some of these goats are not electric trained, so I want a jolt to get their attention!! Well I didn't need this but it's reality. Looks like $$ will be spent today. . The solars do ok once the animals find respect for the hot wire on the fences -- and help for distant areas, especially shorter runs. .
Fencing fiascos abound. . Electric is good reinforcement for areas slated for more new $$$$ fence, as I can buy & work it. Hey, after 20 years, some needs replacement.
Better refill this cuppa. I'll need a Valium after checking prices for this .what would a day be like without a challenge ?!?!?
Well....from my couch, found no in stock strong charger at local stores. On line, ordered to be here Sat....set on their butt strong!! It'll handle a lot of miles and free return, warranty, etc. solar batteries coming, next week. Yeah -- lighting things up
BBQ? 6.7 Joules, suggests good for livestock such as bulls and wild moose, elk....I think it will get their attention! There was a 4.5 but off brand and not great reviews. Local stores hard to find a 2 joule and that's just a little above the solars . Once hit hard a couple times, they pretty much stay back off of any of it.
Let's just say -- I'm hoping that I don't hit it!!
Nice sun, 58 going to 80....hot coffee in hand, walked onto front porch.. Grass needs mowed!! Back porch visit, grass needs mowed! geesh. Hope back pastures are doing this well!
I'm going to go to work. That grass can grow an other day!! I'll leave so not looking at it -- resolve it tomorrow after the new charger arrives right now, I'm looking for a dose of patience . where'd I put it??
Coffee! I went outside while coffee was making. We got 2” of rain last night. I let ewe group out on grass, let dogs out, fed CCX Dirty Birdies. I’ll move their tractor later. Only one corner is standing water.
Howdy y'all! Figured I should pop on and say hi, ran 19 miles this morning, we got some cold weather here, hope y'all are getting some nicer weather then we are!
Cool but heading to mid 70s. Rain begin about 1 for rest of day...maybe 1-1.5". Kinda need. Noticed dry topsoil as I walked into lower, back fields yesterday. So do whatever needed this morn, inside after lunch. Staying coo, so I'll put something in oven for supper.
Another too early wake up...coffee over but, it was good! I've had a couple weeks almost entirely at home. Next week, loaded with work again. I rather like homebound. Oh well.
