Report Card

The report card is in and Fur Real Farms did sensational during the three days below freezing! All our animals are alive and well. We kept water and electricity flowing. And there is very little we need to do in the future to do even better. 

We have a pole barn with two openings and in the near future, we're getting a tarp or one of those heavy plastic things, to hang from one of the openings to make the barn even more cozy. The other thing is getting one more, albeit smaller, tank heater for the goats. They had to struggle to get their water from the cow and donkey troughs because theirs was frozen. While cute seeing them all on their tips of their hooves, I can't imagine it's much fun. That's it! What a difference a year makes. I'm kinda proud of ourselves. 

Oh and we picked up the spent grain today so everyone was overjoyed not just for the warmer temps, but the still warm oatmeal they got when we got home.
