So I took some pictures yesterday of feeding with our teams of belgian work horses. Our warmer weather melted our road off earlier than we wanted...makes for hard pulling when we come back from the stackyards with our hay. We are going to fire up the Cat tomorrow and make some new tracks thru a different meadow to avoid the melted off road.
Unhooking the team...ma in law deals with the lead team and pa in law works to unhitch the wheelers. Hooking up and unhooking up is always the most dangerous part of working horses. We love our gentle giants we have now...!
Here a some pictures from last winter...we never got around to roaching our horses manes and pulling their tails this winter. You can see in the next pictures how it really cleans them up when we "groom" them.
Loading hay
Hauling hay to the cows
You can see our "choppers" we built to cut the twine and chuck flakes off the sled.
Yesterday we moved our recently scourguarded heifers home where my in laws will calve them out starting in early April. Check out the snowbanks along the road still. My ma in law on my beloved mare Jill.
My ma in law, husband, and pa in law driving the girls up the driveway.
I will hopefully get down to feed when we will be breaking a colt to lead via tying to the back of the haysled and get some pictures then!
