Our horses are so used to the wind, they are rock solid in it. Lightning and hail too. It is just where they live and a horse that couldn't handle it would have run through a fence and off a cliff a long time ago..... LOL!

last night my dad informed me only 7 birds were on the roof so I went out a while later, after my show ended, and put Penny to bed again. And put all the girls inside cause it was cold last night. AND there was only ONE egg yesterday!! And it wasn't from Penny lol but I guess it's because she was hogging the nest? There are 3 but I guess it's the only "good" one

Let's hope she's broken by this morning, I haven't checked yet.

I really thought I broke her since she was out in the run yesterday morning for a while.

She knows how to trick me I think lol

Oh, I don't mean running away - just those stupid little flinches that knock you into a fence or get you stepped on. I don't know if some of them can ever completely get over that kind of thing. Mine have been within a hundred feet of 3 lightning strikes that I know of in the last few years. The latter two were trees that had bark blown out in a number of directions, but the first was pretty spectacular. There was a martin house made of large sized, heavy gauge PVC pipe on a post on a fenceline between two pastures. When it got hit, it must have exploded in a most spectacular fashion; I found pieces of plastic scattered a hundred feet or so away in every direction. The horses were jittery for a couple of days after that one.

Oh wow! That one's somewhat understandable though, I'd be scared too lol

According to my dad she was out this morning and went back in but when I just went to check she was outside so here's hoping I FINALLY broke her LOL

200 bales of sheepie hay and it is kinda tarped. I need to get more tarps and then I will strap it down for the long haul. Dry and 50 mph winds for tomorrow and the next day. I also need to get some fence to keep the 4 legged game ungulates from eating it.

Good luck with the various deer varieties. The bane of every haystack.

Sour you always confuse me with your choice of words, that are usually over my head. Lately you said dragarse, isn't that the character from Game of Thrones that is called "Mother of Dragons." If not, should be

Sounds Scottish.
