A beautiful day today- it was actually cold this morning. Fall is definitely here...
Mendoza slowly eating his feed. I have bought every kind of feed imaginable and mix lots of different concoctions to try to interest him in eating more. We will actually be putting a light blanket on him at night. It was down to the 40's last night at the ranch and we don't want him to have to expand any extra energy to stay warm...
Tequila waiting at the feed room. look how he is pressing onto the gate we set up to keep the Wanderers out...
A mix of many different kind of animals.
We spent most of the day setting up the pig's area. It is new and improved and they now have insulated winter houses. Here is Sonny trying out one of them. We fill the houses with deep straw and make sure all the cracks are blocked. When it gets really cold, we add more bales and wood to act as wind blocks. The pigs love to burrow into the deep straw.
Sierra also tried one out.
