I've been worrying about a possum getting in with all the doors open, and then that thing shows up...I got it flipped out the front door with a hoe...yuk.

Really? You have teratulas there?
Well, I'd have taken a picture of that!

Guys, you would not have believed these horses. If
Animal Cops ever saw them, these people would be fined big time, and those horses taken away from them. They are Appaloosa/Missouri Fox Trotter cross. One 8 and the other 10. They were so skinny, I felt so sorry for them. Hooves were so long, they had not been trimmed in years. I asked about worming, and the man said he gave him a half tube each. They just don't know why they are so skinny. Duh! Maybe they need some groceries. These people really don't know anything about horses. Both are broke to ride, but we didn't ride them. The deal is both horses, 10 round bales for $200. The hay is worth at least that. Now we are trying to figure out where to put them. I can't leave them there. Other than being so thin, they didn't look like they were sickly. One is black and the other a red roan. It would be wonderful if they gaited.
My daughter and I rode the other Appaloosa gelding. The owner has an indoor arena, which was good because it was raining all day. Other then the fact that he is a little green, he is quiet and gentle. I think I will make an offer on him. Now, what to do with all these horses! At least the neighbor will take the goat, so there will be an extra stall. We have room to build two more.

EWWWWW!
I used to keep one as a pet. But, I let it go after I found it crawling up the wall one day after escaping its terrarium. It was wild-caught anyway.
My Jack Russell would just have TOO much fun with a tarantula!
