In Manitoba we have selenium poor soil too. We have free choice mineral and iodized salt blocks available for the horses all the time. I love your horse barn and can imagine I’m smelling it - that’s what heaven smells like I’m sure.
I used to drive past a pasture in Ohio in the morning on my way to go fishing and when the big guys were out running and kicking it up the fishing could wait. Just an awesome sight to watch them
We also place out in the field for the cattle, we put on a high spot for a little drainage, we set inside a old car tire, to keep the cows pushing it around and kepted the block , stomped into the dirt and mud .worked great, saw a neighbor doing it that way.
Horses are amazing creatures. Dad used them as baby sitters while doing milking chores. He’d set us little ones way up on the Clydesdales in their stalls so he could always look up and see us safe. By the time we were 4 or 5 we had learned to shimmy down their legs or tails to get down. We’d use the pony to stand up on to jump up onto the Clydes and stand up on them to pick apples. Oh the memories are grand. Love to watch your channel. Thanks for sharing.
What absolutely beautiful place you have. Most impressive! Odd note here: 4 years ago , gave my mare some small red salt blocks+ besides regular big white salt block & was giving a small scoop of mineral supplement- big mistake on my part.My little mare hooves where cracking a lot. After reading what felt like a zillion equine research articles& asking vet..the answer was my mare was getting TOO much potassium ! Luckily we caught the problem & got rid of red salt blocks & that mineral supplement. Vet explained he would see real severe effects on horses from pasture that was way way to high in potassium! Who knew? It took a long time to get her hooves all better. I felt like a jerk for doing that!
👍👌🇨🇦❤, being in the woods, or going to the barn, just horsing around, 🐴🐎🐴🐎, there are times you just gotta kick up your heels and go for it, well done Jim
Aww they love the grass... they're so wonderful. I'd like to roll around in that grass ..lol. That's so dang cute. Got to stop and poop it puts 30 seconds more on the trip. Stop it Jim you are anything but mean..lol. You are so good to those babies. I just love watching the horses run. It's just so pretty. That muckety muck ground. That sucks you boots off. lol. When you get your barn done it will be beautiful. Thank you
I'm pretty sure most all your audience knows you'd never try to scare or be cruel to your horses. Matter of fact it's probably the other way around. I remember once in a vid your daughter took the LOOONG way around the back end of Ken. A real stroll in the park. It's just a thing. Most of the time a horse don't mean to step on your foot but sometimes ... they do.
W thyroid and tie up troubles. You can use Muse which is a shot for cows cheaper than equine meds..also higher levels of magnisium hope this supplement. Helps
Awww but dad we love this pasure haha okjust like when inneed to get my dogs in house after were out on farming all day jim i any one can see they are your famaly they have awsome lives
another great video...lol..just proves horses are horses the world over..no matter what thier accent is...here in Australia having worked on large cattle stations ( ranch) we RUN horses into the yards (corals) and WALK them out..so dont feel your mean...people who do, dont know horses...also maybe mix your supplement with a lil mollasses in feed...
I'm glad Buck's doing good. Vita Flex Accel is good stuff. Amazon has 5 lbs for $35 or 30 lbs for $130. Both ship free. The 30 lb is the best value. They also make Accel Lifetime. It's a slightly diff formula.
I used to get a mineral salt block for my horses for selenium deficiency. I think I got it from Moorman's feed. Fescue grass is bad for causing selenium deficiency.
I have my stuff out some of the thyroid and keep up the good work I am the good horses everything is fine over here in Maine where in a little town of Turner little one horse town in the house runaway talk to you later
This is exactly the kind of video I was looking to see, the horses on their day off. They enjoy working with you, working for you. And why not when there is so much kindness spoken and shared in this partnership.
I see the a belgian one in the barn. Have you notice if one of the belgian would be more friend with one of the Percheron. The social life of your horses does interest me. This is why, I once did ask how they dwell all four together in the pasture. Just asking, no idea of what should or shouldn't be done.
They don’t all get along great together, the teams do ok together but Bill gets quite aggressive at times. Since they have shoes on it would be very risky to put them out together...if they kick they can do a lot of damage.
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim Thank you for your patience, That's twice that you answer a question from me on this subjet. if ever you have a friend, or an acquitance who have clydesdale, I would like to hear a converstion between the two of you. Mind you, I love all breeds, and I have a little kick for a breed that was establish in Quebec in the 17th century: The Canadian, in French we call it «Le Canadien»
The horses were in the woods, not relaxing/feeding in the open field, and I wonder if they might have been in there hiding from you . I can imagine them thinking ‘damn it he found us’.
If that doesn't work well! Compare the Ingredients in this, it's all natural and this distributor might be in your region! What ever you do make sure the Mineral supplements are all natural, just because it says Non-GMO, doesn't mean they don't add ingredients like this Hydrated Sodium Calcium Aluminosilicate in it! Get nothing that first part of the name contains Alumin, it has Alluminum in it, and that is actually bad for human or animal brains! The site for this is bigskymineral.com/hilands-big-sky-mineral-25lb-bag/ If you will look at the ingredients they are all natural and the Selenium(immune/thyroid) is 70ppm min. and the Zinc (Immune) is 500ppm, Potassium Iodide(thyroid), and made be better than what your vet is recommending, If it's just a selenium suppliment and isn't a almost whole mineral suppliment, it does say to free choice salt separately! But they have that as well in stock! Check them out and maybe perhaps this is cheaper and better! I don't know, so you'll have to compare the ingredients! It is $54.80 for a all natural 70 minerals in 25lb. bags! Hope this helps you out! Buck is looking a lot better though! We're all rooting for ya Buck! P.S> you might be able to see if they have this in pellitized form~
We’d open all the stall doors, go to the pasture and whistle, they all come running and go right to their stalls. Always amazed me
Wonderful how well you take care of the horses.
I like how he just stopped, pooped, looked at you like, why, we were napping in the woods, hope you got some on your boots...
Horses are like kids, demanding, pushy and yet ignore you at other times, yet we love them!
In Manitoba we have selenium poor soil too. We have free choice mineral and iodized salt blocks available for the horses all the time. I love your horse barn and can imagine I’m smelling it - that’s what heaven smells like I’m sure.
when they first started out of the woods they were side by side like they were working lol
You have happy horses! They all trust you and know you are the leader. Love all your videos..thanks for sharing!

I once visited with a guy and he had taught the horses to come when he rang a bell. Ring that bell and it was full on sprint to the barn for a treat.
we had a couple that would come when we beat on the grain bucket

There great when there kicking and racing to the barn

No fear in them, not the way y’all work together so well...

That looks was like hay we are on a vacation, that as hard as we work its vacation time.

I love your horses and seeing your videos
Thanks for watching!
W thyroid and tie up troubles. You can use Muse which is a shot for cows cheaper than equine meds..also higher levels of magnisium hope this supplement. Helps
Happy Horses!
Looking forward to knowing how well the selenium works for Buck.🐴🐴
Yes, we will try to keep you informed, thanks for watching!
Bill seemed to want trot a lot but I notice he did slow to the walk. Nothing seems to bother him. Thank you for sharing.
I remember my Dad trying to get horses in the barn so he could get hay in!!
your horses look great. well cared for. thanks.
, beautiful sight watching them gallop x
Absolutely! I was just going to place a comment! Majestic
Thanks for the update Jim
Thanks for sharing! Videos are very educational
Thanks again jim
Another great video, thank u Jim :)
Awww but dad we love this pasure haha okjust like when inneed to get my dogs in house after were out on farming all day jim i any one can see they are your famaly they have awsome lives
They look awsome running giants in run they are fast
Thank you for the update.
Hi Jim. Great watching them run!
What kind of boots do you wear? I'm sure you put them through some rigors.
Thanks. The boots and in our Amazon store- in the description in each video(under the clothing section). They work well for me
another great video...lol..just proves horses are horses the world over..no matter what thier accent is...here in Australia having worked on large cattle stations ( ranch) we RUN horses into the yards (corals) and WALK them out..so dont feel your mean...people who do, dont know horses...also maybe mix your supplement with a lil mollasses in feed...

Hi Jim, seems that Buck is ok again. For what reason did you fix the foil below the roof? Farm on, Andreas
Gettin' to play 'wild horses' for a few days can change any body's attitude about going back to work, unless it's winter.
I'm glad Buck's doing good. Vita Flex Accel is good stuff. Amazon has 5 lbs for $35 or 30 lbs for $130. Both ship free. The 30 lb is the best value. They also make Accel Lifetime. It's a slightly diff formula.
Thanks for the info, we can compare prices next time we need it
Hello. I'm Korean man. I like horse and mules, donkey. I have 3 mule. You video watching. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
I used to get a mineral salt block for my horses for selenium deficiency. I think I got it from Moorman's feed. Fescue grass is bad for causing selenium deficiency.
Yes, and we've been feeding minerals with good results.
put it in their grain! We made 3 ton of feed about every third day, we put the minerals right in the feed- I forget how many scoops per batch!
I have my stuff out some of the thyroid and keep up the good work I am the good horses everything is fine over here in Maine where in a little town of Turner little one horse town in the house runaway talk to you later

My gosh, this pasture looks like it's bigger than our entire farm.
I see the a belgian one in the barn. Have you notice if one of the belgian would be more friend with one of the Percheron. The social life of your horses does interest me.

There is noithing wrong when they go for there morning run.. It keeps the blood flowing.. Keeps them healthy...
I see the long sleeves is it starting to cool down up there? Been fairly warm here, but I know it will start cooling down soon.
Started out cool in the morning, then got hot and muggy! Dog days of August!
they are running hoping to get some grain or an apple, carrot or peppermint, no it's just Jim with his camera again
😀
Do you ever ride them back to the barn ?
No- just drive or lead them
👍🏼
You need a vehicle to go to big field..it’s a long walk other wise.
👍👍
You mean? Um, I'm not sure if that's possible.
What happened to Buck?
The horses were in the woods, not relaxing/feeding in the open field, and I wonder if they might have been in there hiding from you . I can imagine them thinking ‘damn it he found us’.
less flies in the woods?
Definitely less flies there and it’s cooler too
A SALT BLOCK
How old is buck
He’s about 20
Jim forgot to ask you how is buck doing
He is doing great, thanks
