aurora said...: Those are their water buckets! Funny to watch. Cierra will drag hay across the stall to dunk and sometimes just drops it on Hopes back lol. She is quickly learning from mama. Messy, but it's okay with us. Brad mentioned hay dunkers are less likely to colic. It helps with Cierra's dry cough.

Cierra's grain bucket is also red. You can see a sole bucket in the distant corner, behind Hope butt. Hard to tell what bucket is what, the water so low and full of hay.

We refill water buckets throughout the day, as fast as they are draining them. Cierra is a bottomless pit, with everything. Water included.; July 14, 2023 at 9:41 AM
