I hope you have enjoyed the nice weather we have been having. We've been getting some things done around the farm because it's so nice outside.
I thought today would be a good day to answer some of the questions you've sent me.
 |
| No, we don't have a daddy cow. A daddy cow is called a bull. Bulls are not very nice, they are hard to handle and we don't like to keep animals on the farm that might hurt children who visit. |
We have a steer, named Remi. He's not a daddy cow because he can't have babies.
He gets very excited every time he hears the tractor!
 |
| We have a mommy cow named Echo. She's not a mommy, yet! Her calf is due on March 25th. How many more days before she has a calf? |
 |
| No, we don't have pigs. We aren't allowed to have pigs in our town, that's the law. |
 |
| This is a good question! We have flat head shovels, spades (shovels with a round end), pick axes, manure forks, rakes, pitch forks, garden forks |
 |
| Bryon, Matt, and Tim shovel the manure and mess from the stall to the tractor. |
Our tractor helps move the manure and yuck from the stalls to the mulch pile.
 |
| That is a lot of manure! We use it on our garden and we share it with anyone who wants it for their garden. |
Our tractor can unload hay from the truck.
 |
| This is a good question! How much hay do you have? |
 |
| This is what the barn looks like when it's ready for more hay. |
 |
| How many bales of hay can you count? How long do you think this hay will last? |
