Weanling Foals Are Ready For Winter | Orphan Foal | Canadian Winter | Small Farm Vlog
Просмотров 56212 часов назад
At the beginning of 2024, I never envisioned that we would have foals born on our property. Not one, but two foals joined us on our farm this year, including the heartbreaking situation with Sugar that left Ladybug as an orphan. We did our best to ensure she could live like a real horse, giving her space to learn proper equine behavior. Both have grown remarkably well, and I'm so excited to wat...

I'm struggling. I'm struggling to stay warm. I'm struggling with crazy kids stuck indoors. I'm struggling with freezing my fingers. BUT, this is also why I have animals. It forces me to get outside EVERY DAY. I get some fresh air, my brain gets to breathe in a different way, and I also get some exercise trudging through the rising snow levels. It's crazy to think that some people don't live lik...

Day 7 Horses In The Winter | What Kind of Predators Are Around Here? | Small Farm Vlog
Просмотров 528День назад
It's a rugged life. MOST horses live happily outside their entire life, seeking natural shelter when the weather turns nasty. I've seen panicked people say, "Those animals must be so cold, they have lots of snow on their back!" This life isn't for everyone. It's a combination of compassion, love, common sense, logical thinking, hard decisions, and educated actions. If you enjoy watching realist...

    Fence feeding seems to have the added advantage of preventing them from pooping and peeing on there food (mostly, at least) and that has to be a good thing too. Thanks for the frosty video :) PS love the Cdn Beaver hat -- glad it is keeping you really warm, your head at least.

    I can’t get over how thick their fur/ hair has grown.They all look amazing.The babies are doing well,and giving the mare space is good so she can fill out over the winter after feeding them both.She was such a kind generous soul taking on Ladybug.Animals know and understand a lot more than we realise…It looks cold out ther but the beauty of the snow on the ground is always so lovely to see.We had two days of about two inch snow.But our chances of a white Christmas are very Slim.I know we had one 43 yrs ago when my youngest was born.Very few since.Yet where I live in the uk used to have bad snow storms,deep ones too.I was born during one lol!..But I lived in Cornwall and Devon for most of my childhood and hardly ever snows there at all.Funny being on a small island the weather even is so diverse.I am just grateful we don’t have the cold temperatures as you do.Sending love to you both and the children 🥰

    What if you put a heavy duty panel in front of the stall opening and tied plywood sheet to it to act as a wind block and bed that down pretty heavy. So that would give them a spot to lay and feed on the open side. What I picture and how it comes out of my mouth is not always a match. 😊 My horse always ate the straw. I had to use sawdust shavings.

    Oh my I was laughing at your singing then felt super guilty cause you were so cold and stressed 😢 but you got there in the end. You really are a trooper! And I agree on the blanket thing. They are a last resort. The trap moisture and can cause mould and actually hold the cold in. Your shelter is the best idea. I really hope the wind dies down soon ❤

    The Weiner Suite - for the cutest little Weiners. ;) excellent set-up on sturdy divider. I especially like the pallet over your heated waterer-though my ocd would tie it at more than two points on each sides as big horses are going to try to get at the foals free-feed hay. Really excellent set-up :)

    The youngsters will be fine once they have been away from the lovely Mare who just keeps feeding.Shes kind but it does not do her good to keep feeding on and on does it,she needed the break.Both youngsters have come on really well this year.The new area will be great for them to have space or share and play if they want..They will be fine.We had Snow in the West Midlands in the U.K. where I live.Lasted two days then it started to rain in the early hrs and was gone nearly when I got up.We have a big storm due bringing high winds and snow as well as rain .I am not so bothered about that it’s the cold that gets me.The flat I live in has like a patio door and it seems to radiate the cold into the front room.When you have chronic arthritis from head to toe ,you suffer from that cold ,so end up under a blanket most of the time to keep warm…Radiators on but the cold does not care..lol!..Sending love to you both and to the children 🥰
