When my granddaughter came to live with us we assigned her the poop patrol because she also brought a dog, but she vowed she would only pick up the "smaller" ones. I laughed and agreed. That's a load of poop you have to deal with and like the others.....what do you do with it. I will await your answer next week.

My routine is to do a loop feeding, then start cleaning pens and work my way back. With my 2 xtras this week, I'm cleaning 7 pens. If I let horses out in the yard (that's a 1 acre "yard"), then I make another loop w/wheelbarrow thru the yard. Then I grab the dog poop cart and do that loop. Takes me about an hour on a normal day just to feed and scoop poop. I consider myself an expert now, lol. I'm betting you are too :)Mikeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03574914465998507310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-65464051851417114832011-01-07T08:43:11.992-07:002011-01-07T08:43:11.992-07:00What a mountain of ... stuff. :)What a mountain of ... stuff. :)Rhondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11379966486917936027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-53386419629176003052011-01-07T08:25:34.101-07:002011-01-07T08:25:34.101-07:00That is a truly fantastic picture of Hank.

Way more expensive than the solar water trough!<br />And, Billie, there have been folks who trained their horses to "eliminate" in a particular spot. There was a guy on a suburban So. Cal. lot (think 1/2 acre, with neighbors) a kazillion years ago, that created a big French drain, the trained (a la clicker training, but it hadn't been invented yet) his two horses to stand there when they peed. Don't know if he added something to reduce the smell, but his neighbors were happier.EvenSonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02032555334605790413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-21249465048683888582011-01-07T07:12:25.275-07:002011-01-07T07:12:25.275-07:00Yep, I want to know, too.
