A Busy Weekend at the Ranch

A Busy Weekend at the Ranch

 

We moved the rescue horses into the round pen. We have found that palomino now that she is eating good is getting meaner.  We have to put her up on the fence to get caught. If she is tied up it has to be solid or otherwise she will pull it down and run with whatever is wrapped in the rope. Then she is a real pain to catch. We think now that she is being fed regularly and feeling better some of the past bad handling and other issues are resurfacing.

 

The Animal Control officer out on Thursday. We talked about the horses, what needs to be done with them and just in general problems. The palomino was the horse main topic od discussion. I told them she was a horse that couldn’t be trusteed to have kids handle her, handling my adults was also a big issue, trimming her feet without being sedated wasn’t happening, and her future.

 

My feeling is where she can’t be trusted she should be a permanent pasture art where she is fed and not handled much or taken to the landfill and put down. I feel the latter is the best for her. She isn’t mellowing as expected and is getting worse to be around.  I talked to the daughter who is in charge of the horse rescue about her and we decided to wait on her till after the court case is over.

We are now working on the web site. The site is coming along slower than I wanted. Live enters and changes priorities and takes other things off the table. I am hoping that by next week we can have the website and going. I am leaving  q week from Weds to take cows up to the hills for summer pasture for 5 days. When I get back we will be getting ready for Linda’s Jewelry Showing.

 

We have finished all of the work needed for the Jewelry showing. We are waiting on full announcement till we confirm on Monday with the shop owner that we are good to go. Once we have that commitment from them we will provide details here and on Facebook.

ML Ranch Jewelry is having a Gift Certificate Give away.  Go to the ML Ranch Jewelry’s Facebook page and hit the like button to enter the drawing for the $100 gift certificate giveaway.

Linda has decided to hold off on a knee replacement for now. She is going to see how it feels as she gets to feeling better with her hip replacement.

Linda is making jewelry at a furious pace.  Her original and unique one of kind designs is going to be a nice pick of jewelry over the mass produced designs out there in other jewelry stores.

A Slow Wednesday at the Ranch

A Slow Wednesday at the Ranch

 

We had the Animal Control officer’s out to look at the rescue horses. They hadn’t been out for 2 weeks as they were on vacation.  We went over their status and the path forward their boss agreed to on Monday.

 

We are going to get the vet appt. to have their teeth floated and on a weight increase program set up by the vet.  We will also have J-Lo put under to also have her feet trimmed. This the only way she is going she allows someone to work on her feet.

A Slow Monday at the Ranch

A Slow Monday at the Ranch

 

Well it was supposed to be slow Monday for me. Well it started slow but ramped up when we found out the Sheriff’s Dept. wanted to see the Rescued 2 horses. The Muley colored horse was easy to catch. The palomino horse was a different story. After she tried to take me twice in the stall while putting a halter on I had to call in for help.  We got her haltered and tied up.

 

I had the Alternate school kids work on grooming the Muley. I took on the palomino. We she was good on the right side till I started on the hind quarter. She has one mean kick. She knows where she is going to hit when she kicks. She almost nailed me on the first kick. She has a kick that a dairy cow would love to have.

 

I tried to groom her left side and the kick was alive and dead on accurate. She is only able to see a little due to an injured eye that is now cloudy. I gave up after the third kick.

 

The sheriff showed up to look at them. He agreed that they need to have their teeth floated and on a weight increase program set up by the vet. We will make an appointment to get the vet work done

Saturday at the Ranch

Saturday at the Ranch

Well we had a nice slightly breezy day in SE Idaho. The steady  breeze was 35 mph and the slightly breezier wind was 55 mph and up.  Needless to say it wasn’t a good day to be outside.

 

Well I spent the morning and part of the afternoon helping a friend of mine brand calves and vaccinate cows. Due to the breeze and threat of rain we breezed thru 80 plus calves and the same amount of cows in record time. It was too cold and miserable to drink beer and Bull S@@t. WE wanted to get done and get out of the breeze and warm up.  We even had to wait for lunch get done. We were don almost an hour earlier than lunch was planned for.

 

Well after getting out of the breeze we then started up the Bull S@@t. The beer drinkers in the crowd started to have some. It was too cold for me to drink beer. I shot of crown would have tasted good. However the guy in charge of bringing the crown (ie-me) forgot to bring it.  So I stuck to water and coffee. We will have at least one more day of branding the late calves in a couple of weeks to do after the main bunch of the cows and calves go to the hills.

 

We start the cows to the hills around 2^nd of May. This is a 4 day trip to get them from his place to the ranch in the hills. It is 35 miles by the road to trail them up. Nobody only does the 35 miles other than the windshield cowboys.  The weather can go from hot and sunny to rain or snow. Almost 30 years ago we had 20 inches of shoe to slog thru.  We were all glad on Sunday to crawl in the truck cab and warm up and dry out.

 

ML Ranch Jewelry

 

Well ML Ranch Jewelry has added 20 plus items to our online stores.  Check out these new designs and creations Linda has come up with.   We have 4 items that need the pictures redone and then added to the stores.

We will be adding more products here shortly to the stores.  We need at least one day to get the web site done and up and running on the web. The new web site will show off product that is available to  buy at the online stores. We made the decision to not sell from the web site. The  SSL , which is required to protect your credit card, is getting too pricey to maintain. The cost would have caused an increase in jewelry prices which we felt was not what we wanted to do based on our business plan.  The online stores charges on selling product are low enough to ensure no price increases.

Beyond Frustrated on the Siezed Horses Issue

Another Frustrating Day at the Ranch

 

 

ML Ranch Jewelry is still waiting for Bonneville Sheriff Dept. show some compassion towards the 2 seized horses. We would like readers that want to help out to email us at mlfarms@q.com. For those folks that will call the sheriff to put pressure on them to call (208) 529-1375. When you call them ask for Sgt. Casperson, Jeff Edwards or ther sheriff himself Mr. Paul Wilde. They also have a Facebook page (  https://www.facebook.com/bonneville.sheriff ). The pressure needs to be put on them to help us get more support from them. They won’t answer our questions about support from them.  Also any other pressure by the media ( http://www.localnews8.com/ ) send emails to them and request Caleb James.  Caleb is the one who broke the story and wants to follow this story.

Well ML Ranch Jewelry is in the process of editing and copy right protecting of the pictures of new jewelry for the on line stores. The new jewelry will start to be listed today on the various on line stores. The weather today was not conducive to cleaning stalls but the needed to be done. I blitzed thru them in 2 hours including feeding them.

I am proceeding to slowly add new jewelry to our on line sales stores. It is a labor intensive to crop and copy write the pic’s before they can be used.

I had originally was not putting copy write logo on them. However when I found several of our pic’s being used on line without our permission I knew then it had to be done to protect us.

Another Frustrating Day at the Ranch

 

 

ML Ranch Jewelry is still waiting for Bonneville Sheriff Dept. show some compassion towards the 2 seized horses. However we are realizing they don’t care about them.  We believe they are hoping the horses and the owners problems go away. We can’t even get them to respond back to phone calls left for them.

 

We are going to make up the bill so far for the care of the horses. We need to pay for their board regardless of not caring by the Sheriff’s Dept. the bills needs to be paid.  Also we have paid for a farrier to work on their hooves, wormer, shavings, hay, etc.

The weather today is also conducive to adding jewelry as it is raining and wind gusts of greater than 40 mph.  We ahd a week of super nice weather and I guess having bad weather is expected during spring in Idaho.

Frustrating and Waiting Game Day at the Ranch

Frustrating and Waiting Game Day at the Ranch

 

ML Ranch Jewelry is still concerned on what Bonneville Co Sheriff is going to do on the horse animal abuse case. We are still concerned they are trying to get the media (Local and Internet) to quiet down before they do something stupid like seize the horses and take them to the landfill to put them down.

 

Well the Bonneville Co. Sheriff is continuing there NO SEEM UM policy. If they don’t actually see the horses the horse’s problem isn’t there. So far the horses have been in the rescue’s care since March 23^rd and the still haven’t been out to check on them. They don’t even call to check on them. We don’t know what to do for paying for feed, bedding material, and vet bills. We are digging deep into our pockets to help feed and bed the horses but it isn’t cheap to do this.

 

Any help the horse rescue can get will be greatly appreciated. Also any phone calls to the Bonneville Co Sheriff’s Dept. and let them know the showed allow donations for  the horses to be taken will  also be a great help.

 

ML Ranch Jewelry

 

Well ML Ranch jewelry is back from its Easter Break.  We stayed at home and enjoyed the nice weather.  It has been the nicest weather we have had since the 1^st week of Nov.

Linda has come up with several new designs for earrings.  She is almost done with one pair when it is finished we will post up the pictures. We are getting ready to take some pictures of new jewelry and post them up on the on line stores. We will let you know when they start to hit the stores.

 

ON a Side Note

The new Tv in the kitchen is the best thing we have done in ages. It is nice to look directly at the TV and not have to see it in reverse in the mirror.  That was livable but it is way nicer to have it in the kitchen.
