DRAFT HORSES // Pictorial of 9 teams spreading manure on a beautiful October weekend
This weeks video is a little different format, it is a pictorial version. It is about 9 friends who get together annually in the fall , with their draft horses, to help a farmer spread his summer collection of cow manure around the farm. Each team hauled about 30 loads.

    Thank you for sharing your mule info. I found it very educational as I did not know that their body structure is so different along with using different tact. I remember my grandparents talking about their mules and their covered wagon. I had a horse whom I dearly loved--my best friend, but now at later years, I wonder how 🤔 I would do with a calm mule. And do they eat a tad of alphalfa? Just curious?

    Call me ignorant, but I don’t know of any society that requires tail docking. Mostly societies require tails plaited for showing. Tail docking is preemptive for when they’re older and then no tails get caught in gates, doors or in swiggle/swindle trees or chains etcetera. That’s how it works in Australia anyhow, and tail docking is also now outlawed in Australia. Love the new colts, as a newbie also to droughts (Clydesdales for us) I like watching someone else new to droughts and and who has a few trails and errors. Stay safe in the storms.

There's a lot of thick smoke around here from surrounding wildfires. But, it sure is nothing compared to what everyone in the hurricane path is and will be dealing with.
