Baby Animals and the Farrier

We have critters of all kinds on our land:  goats, rabbits, turkeys, chickens, ducks, horses, and of course, Mordacai.  Seems every spring they have babies, (duh!)











And I truly have a wonderful time watching our farrier work on Mordacai's hooves!  It's a show to behold!  He is good man, really, really great at working with these critters!






This being Texas and all, we even have a Texas size mosquito!

He's made from a plant we call the Devil's claw. Wire three of them together and put a scrap of felt on the lil' feller.  He's dressed and ready to go!
