That's important to me - and I find that if I do the chores every day it isn't that big a deal. <br />I'm like you when it comes to saving shavings! I really try to winnow out the good stuff. I've been using wood pellets, soaked so they turn into fine sawdust, in Pippin's stall. His stall is so much easier to clean than Doc's, which has the shavings. I'm only using the shavings until they are gone - and I use them in Doc's stall because he isn't quite as messy as Pippin. <br />Oh, I also love your barn. Old barns have such stories to tell!Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02113432418609414054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-521506189961896893.post-26025254164894443512012-01-06T07:25:17.993-05:002012-01-06T07:25:17.993-05:00Oh wow, Lori, I knew you work hard, but only reali...Oh wow, Lori, I knew you work hard, but only realise how hard from this post.

Your love of them shows, and they must surely appreciate the unfrozen water, clean stalls and all home comforts.And the covers, hard work to put on,but maybe do they stay on all winter, with extras for the very colder days? Brave little others to keep you company in the snow.<br />Cheers from JeanNancy Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854698513524662527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-521506189961896893.post-52310669656908902052012-01-06T00:43:34.733-05:002012-01-06T00:43:34.733-05:00Pretty much the same routine here, except a couple...Pretty much the same routine here, except a couple of extra feedings each day since Paj had ulcers last year. Our water troughs (sp?) in the pastures are on timers so that when we're ready for turnout, the water's water, not ice. It works for us. Would like to put Nelsons in the pastures some day.Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944121836337072178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-521506189961896893.post-59582622075417151622012-01-05T21:27:30.372-05:002012-01-05T21:27:30.372-05:00Love seeing the details, Lori!
