Margali's Griffin Wood Ranch

[Margali]

On 1st break watching a Sandi Brock video and having breakfast. Large side cleaned out. It was super dusty so N95 mask was a must. I've kept my original 4 off this outside area and there is grass. Let's see how long it lasts with 6 ewes in there.

I need you to come work at my barn

I wish I had a barn to clean out!

Looks good in there, nice work.

Got stall dry and finished clearing out the inside of the shed. The middle pen still looks crappy because it has a lot of waste straw trod into mud.

You have done a fabulous apartment clean up and decorating for the ewes. I know they will appreciate clean dirt and bovine de’ panel divider with plenty of air flow!

We went to local pow wow event. Saw mesoamerican dancers, a north american drum circle, and a polynesian troop.

Just got home with Snickers. The ladies went wild calling for him (or supper). He is super calm. Let me check his teeth without being restrained then stood calmly for halter. Some slight balking loading but walked off into pen without a quibble. Pictures in the morning.

Here he is! Calmly let me put a collar on him. The 26" one is on last notch.

That’s so exciting! You got a super nice ram for the ladies!

Noticed he had a gouge on his forehead so I shave area and treated it with BlueKote. Then I tried to get blood from ear, no go. Finished up with getting fecal sample. Well behaved during whole thing.
Here's the stinkeye afterwards though. I think kids help with BlueKote when I wasn't looking.

There will be random tidbits of feed, hook to fence, and release in next several weeks.
