Good evening--had to catch up on the "news." I have to tell you about Carol and my ride this afternoon...the new guy (Commander, 11YO TN walker Gelding) was fabulous! We decided to stop at the river and see if they wanted a drink. Well I finally got him stopped when the water was up to his chest and my ankles! I guess He has no problem with water crossings! I thought Carol was going to wet right up there on MY saddle! She was laughing Ho Ho Ho like Santa Claus! THen we crossed a bit of a ditch and he went right thorough! His head sure was on a swivel though...had to keep looking all around. Brodie (my other horse) did very well I thought with Carol. THey needed to have a meeting of the minds in the beginning. It is nice to see another person riding so I can see what he does with his feet when gaiting.
I have a few chicks in my chick TV that are puzzling me. Maybe someone has an idea? There are these two that hatched yesterday that are scratching and scratching like a dog scratching at its ear! THey scratch so hard it makes them fall over on their backs! I looked for bugs...nothing. THe only think I can think of is that there is a bit of albumin left on their feathers, could that be making them itch so frantically? THey look like they want to scratch their eyes out!
OK I need to hit the hay--sweet dreams all! TErri O
