Cold Monday Mornings Suck!

Well the water of course is frozen, thank heavens Rodney filled up everyone's buckets last night. My job in the mornings is to grain the babies and fill everyone's water. He has already been out and given everybody hay for the morning. Everyone seems to be doing good this morning. I was a little worried due to the HUGE drop in temperature overnight. Knock on wood, they all seem fine. Two of my babies didn't eat their grain last night, but I had to substitute Tractor Supply for the good stuff I get in Benson because I was out. They don't like the sweet feed much, but were up and happy this morning so I don't think there is anything wrong with them.

Gotta move some boys around this afternoon to prepare for the snow coming Thursday. Oh joy! Actually, if I am prepared for it I don't mind it at all. Reallly rather have snow than 100 degrees!

I was watching the NHRA championships for 3 year old last night. Big kudos to Jeff Matthews horses as they were the big winner walking away with $250,000.  The winning horse was a son of One Time Pepto which the Matthews own. Peptoboonsmal horses still heavily dominate the cutting and reining world. Gotta get some of that blood line here at my farm. There were some High Brow Cat horses that placed and that would be a welcome addition as well. In the spring this search will begin. It will be time to upgrade some blood.

Well, gotta get ready for work in the real world that for now pays all the bills for the horses. Talk to you tomorrow.

This is my sweet Frankie baby!  Just looked out the window and colts were gobbling up their grain, so thank goodness no colic just holding out for the good stuff.
