Teresa & Mike CHS - Our journal

[Mike CHS]

I went out to do some grooming on Maisy and when I went into the pasture, one of the ewes heard the chain on the gate and started the whole herd running for feed (which they weren't getting this morning). As soon as I started on Maisy, they figured they weren't getting anything and went running back to the fresh grass. I never thought about turning on the video on the camera till afterwards. This is some of the Red River Crab Grass broadcast over our native grasses that I seeded a month or so ago and I'm curious to see how it holds up to grazing. We are only leaving them on the new sections for a few days at a time.

Mr. @Mike CHS,

When are you going to start reading Mel's New Adventures to Maisy so that she can comment as well?

Even with the stills it is pretty funny. My chickens do the same thing.

The 8 ewe lambs that were in the dry lot are the tamest sheep I have ever seen and will ignore feed to get some scratches but two of them were runts at birth and look to be staying that way so they need to go also.

Petting zoo animals!

It was time to give a second dose of wormer to the 5 ewes that had a fairly high egg count so we brought the whole herd back to the handling area. We wormed the 5 then let the whole bunch loose and walked them back to their paddock.

She said Thank You Fred. We have enough pre-cooked things in the freezer that there is always some variety.

That grass has really taken off! I have two runts too, they will go to slaughter.

I hope Teresa enjoys her trip and has a good time!

She is taking the long route to avoid all of the flooding out there.
