We had a really nice sunny, mild day today but now the wind is whipping and its raining and cold. When that happens I go through all 80+ animals in my mind: 21 chickens are warm and safe in the coop. 2 Calves are locked in the shelter. 3 Big pigs are in the pig shelter or pole barn. 4 Little pigs are under a heat lamp on the porch. Horse, donkey and rabbit colony (20) are all protected in the pole barn. 3 injured chickens are safely caged. 2 more rabbits are safe in a yard tractor with a heat lamp and shelter. Funny Farm Yard poultry (12) are in their shelter with the garage cement walls to their north. 5 Cats are on the porch. 3 Foster kittens, 2 dogs, 2 rats and 2 snakes are in the house. Oh....kids and mom are warm and safe, too. There have been times, though, when I got half way through the role call and ended up running out in the rain with a head lamp to move/rescue animals! Im glad tonight is not one of those times.
