Summer started several days ago. It hit 100 degrees. Didn't seem that hot, but boy, the sweat was rolling off us today. The breeze made all the difference.
Bought a round bale and had it delivered to the pen.
Fed.
The girls have been moved around. One has gone to get bred. One was moved off the east pasture to let it grow a little.
Put some Nu Stock on some suspicious spots, just in case of ringworm.
Checked eyes. Flies make me worried about pink eye. I think we need to buy some pink eye medicine to keep on hand with our other medicines just in case of a future emergency.
Unloaded and stored two kinds of fly spray, but didn't spray today. There didn't seem to be nearly as many flies as usual.
Put some bag balm on some rough spots on Ayan's udder and one of her teats.
We still need to bring a drill and screws to fix some of the feed troughs. Two metal ones need drain holes drilled so they won't hold water after a rain. At least one of the troughs I got from my great grandpa needs screwed back together. It has a board popped out of the side and is putting pressure on one of the wires in the fence. We don't want to have to fix fence. We've got lots of other projects we could be doing.
