    Sorry for your loss. Please store your feed in your feed room. If you don’t have one; make one. Apply some swat around his sutures ( not on ) to keep flies off.

    Spray peppermint inside the combine several times a year, also they have mouse and rat repellent that is organic and lasts 3 months you can use the same bags with some peppermint oil. I use in on my farm when the camper is here.

    I grew up green breaking horses for my dad and the best cutting horse he ever owned I green broke for him. I ended up getting the horse when I lived in Wyoming Colorado and Montana. Brought him back to Texas and went on with my life, he died with his head in my lap few years ago. He was 23 yrs old and very tuff. Amazing how we get attached to the beautiful animals.

Lawrence knows like I do, not to dwell on these tragedies, but I know he's grieving. Keep movin. Can't bring Pete back. You're about to have many new lives to deal with. Wish you guys the best!
