The beauty of snow in Colorado is that it disappears after a few days of sunshine. USUALLY. I have had snow on the ground for over 2 weeks now. As you may realize at this stage, I have some body deficits/disabilities, so I cannot chisel frozen horse poop without causing LASTING effects. I normally hand-pick my paddocks clean daily. TWO WEEKS OF HORSES POOP on the ground was murdering my soul. Enter Steve, the best hunnie ever. He used the tractor to scrape it all up, with a good amount of snow, into a poop mountain. So at least there are not land mines everywhere to trip and break something…

It feels like as of late all we have been doing is working on fencing in our *down time* (HAAAA down time, good joke). But I needed a way to start weaning baby Teo off momma CC, and taking them back and forth to a stall with run to separate for a few hours a day until he was fully weaned just wasn’t going to cut it. My boyfriend engineered the loveliest setup so that momma can still have a big paddock, and baby can have a small paddock on the side of that (technically we built it inside the existing paddock, but on one side utilizing the existing fence…

So my momma mare CC (Behold CCF) is one of the sweetest gentlest horses I have ever encountered. So much so that she doesn’t really do well with my other horses because they are both more dominant personalities and she won’t stand up for herself at all. So what does one do with a sweet as sugar mare that needs a sweet friend so she doesn’t have to live alone once her baby is gone? You buy her an emotional support mini mare, obviously. Introducing Belle! She is about 32 tall, so TINY, but with big personality. She is very sweet, smart, and will learn anything for a cookie! Stay…

If you are like me you HATE scrubbing water tanks. Between getting wet and gross, and my back hurting from bending over, it isn’t the most pleasant of farm jobs. So I tried a lazy way of getting the job done and it is my new favorite farm hack! I used some scrub brushes for drills (link below), and it saved me a lot of time, effort, and most importantly backache. Sorry, but it didn’t solve the problem of getting gross. The scrub brush kit for drills that I used: https://amzn.to/3It2IJlThe drill kit (brushless impact and brushless drill) that I used: https://amzn.to/3Rki4E1 And a bonus video of my funny girl…
