This Is How We Roll...
Every morning, chores begin at the barn.
The horses are let out into the pasture.
Hay is spread for them.
Water buckets are filled.
The cats are fed.
The pigs are fed, watered, and cleaned.
The dry lot and stalls are cleaned.
The turkey pen is opened and the turkeys are let out for the day.
And then we head up to the goats and chickens to finish the chores up there.
And every morning, this is how we go....
These two are quite unique birds!
Tom and Chuck...and to think at one time we thought you might join us for Thanksgiving!
Worry not...you have a safe home with us for the rest of your lives...
you crazy feathered fellows!
