During our free time. . .
‘Dui ngau tan kem’ Playing guitar to the COWS. Hmm… what do the cows think of that and Grazette, the grey cow seems to be complaining =P
Woohoo P&A’s FANS~~!! 4 cows and 4 calves!
The innocent cows. . . They are the most compassionate looking animals here. Although Angie got stomped on her foot twice! But they are good girls, giving us milk everyday without objection. Their calves are just a bit naughty, giving us a good exercise, chasing them back to their pent every day. It was really good fun.
The piglets…! There are 18 of them. You will see them where ever there are food! The big piggies are kept in their pent. And each morning, the thunderous sound of PIGs moaning and screaming will be heard. Cause they want FOOD so much. Like 24 hours they are hungry. Gosh, once Peter carry a drum of sorghum feed into their pent, they will push him around with their nose/mouth and he’ll need to put some feed very quickly to divert their attention. Imaging to do all this in raining day, muddy floor, smelly piggies plus poked by their muddy nose…
The funny sight of the PIGS is when they rub their ASS on the wooden enclosure. Up down up down, left right left right. . . . And when those piglets eating the feed, we can pick up their tail and lift up the butt and they just don’t care at all.
Sheeps are funny when you see them in the morning with mucus hanging up to 10cm long from their nose! They must be freezing eventhough they have waterproof and thick wool skin. And the chickens like to eat the mucus. Yuck...

So comfortable.. It's 'his' lounge..
Before riding them, we brush them for a while. The horses love being brushed, love the attention given. We always handle a horse from the left hand side. So we put a mat on its back first before putting the saddle. Then climb using left foot on the left paddle first and bring the body over. Never walk or stand behind the horses as they might get frighten and stomp you! It wasn’t difficult to learn horse riding at all. The most important point is that when you’re on the horse, look at where you want to go and not at the horse. Because the horse will know you are looking at them, and they will go anywhere they want.
25th June 2012. It was a good day! Twin little lambs were born! OMG they are so cute. They have really long legs which doesn’t look right with their body ratio. LOL. When we saw the momma sheep in the morning, she only had one lamb born. Then in the arvo, the second came! The first lamb is a SHE while the second is a HE. They are named after US! How cool =) But poor lil Peter, the momma sheep wouldn’t take him, ignoring him and won’t let him feed, while Angie is being fed and cleaned. Maybe it was the mom’s first time and having a twin, she only wants to keep one, although she has two tits. So we had to hand feed lil Peter with cow’s milk each 3 hours.
Lil Peter knew we will feed him, so he would come running to us each time he’s hungry and Meehhh Meehhh Mehhh… So cute. He will go under our legs to find TITS and he will suck our finger as well. Lol. While lil Angie just sticks to her mother. Hardly can cuddle or even touch her!
Lil Peter just got to enjoy five days of his life on earth. When Angie got down to feed lil Peter, she couldn’t find him anywhere. After a round of search, Angie saw the house dog Magsie chewing something at the corner. And with fear, Angie saw little Peter. Without his head. OMG. It was so sad. His head was bitten clean off. And we had to burn him in the fire to prevent dingos (wild dogs) coming near the house. Poor Lil Peter must be sitting on his own, and not be with his mom since his mom would not take care of him. That’s why he is so vulnerable. May he RIP.
