Mayhem

We have mayhem happening in the barn.

Ok, let's take this from the beginning.

We have a barley fodder system.

It's BEAUTIFUL.

But here lately it has been looking a little ragged.

It's not growing as lush and green.

It's looking a little like 

"somebody"

has been messing with it.

(We had a little red hen who hopped

in there every afternoon,

but Rod covered the entire frame 

in chicken wire so she couldn't 

get in anymore.)

That didn't help.

It was still looking ragged.

And then Friday 

look what I found!

It's dead.

It was already dead when I found it.

Rod poisoned it.

Because this i what I found

over the weekend.

my saddle damage

Rod's saddle damage

GRRRRRRRRR!

So I'm not sad to see the dead rat.

And I hope his friends are 

soon to follow.

(We used to have a snake that took

care of the rat population, but it

started to get a little less "timid"

and Kyle shot it a couple of months ago)
