Shed and Calves

Yay our new shed is finished. Rich and I spent all weekend building the 2 horse yards in it. They are 4.5 x 4m yards. Then we picked up a few calves, ok 27 to be exact. So both yards have 11 calves in each and we have 5 younger ones in our old hay barn. Yards are looking good - nice and high for the horses and nice and big. We have enough materials left to build a 3rd yard which will go in front of one of the yards and will be mostly undercover. I will post some photos tomorrow. Have just been a bit busy.

Almost there

Progress pic of the shed. Has roof on and back wall on and tomorrow will finish the sides an its done. Then we have to kit it out with a couple of yards for the horses/calves.

New shed and baby lambs

My shed is under construction! Yay. Will be finished by next weekend and then we have to quickly make some yards inside it as we are getting some calves. Sorry horses you will have to wait for a while cos the calves need it more. Pics of the shed progress.

And today we got 3 lambs. 2 are ours and one is our flatmate Brendons. Funnily enough we have 2 boys and a little girl.... So the lamb feeding races are on and I would just like to announce that race 1 was won by the girls hahaha! She might be the littlest but she can drink! Am yet to think of a name for her but will let you know!

Bams makeover

Seeing as I had some time today I was finally able to wash and condition Bam's tail, which I have been wanting to do for ages... but to be honest, you can't even tell! He had the oddest tail for a bay. Its black with white hairs and half of it is brown to grey.... it just looks dirty. What do you think?

Bam learns to jump

Rich came out and helped me pop Bam over a few little jumps to give him a taste of jumping and to see how he coped. He was very good about it, trotted the first few without even bothering to jump so had to put them a bit higher. He picked it up immediately and had a nice little spring. Here are a few pictures, will give him another go and might take him to QEP this weekend to go for another hack.
