Roll Back

The older I get, the less I enjoy the twice annual time changes each year. This is our first fall at the farm and honestly, we didn't know what to do with the animals and their feeding. Some people said to just feed them whenever, others said to slowly start switching the time, we chose to go by the daylight. It worked for most of them. The cows were ready, most of the goats were ready, and Patches was ready. Good enough. 

So, one thing that has been helpful, is we've introduced alfalfa to everyone except the donkeys. It's too rich for them, but all the others absolutely love it. The donkeys would love it too, but I'm keeping them healthy. This helps the troublemakers get into their stalls quicker and the nighttime feeding so much more enjoyable. 

As for the rest of the farm, the fence was worked on some and the shed was worked on some. I'm hoping both get done here soon for both the pups and colder weather!
