      It has helped some people, clearly. and complaining to Morgan isn't going to fix the issues you have with it. I'd recommend spending this time contacting BetterHelp itself.

      Tbh, Abby’s issues with animals would be fixed if Morgan looked out for the ques.. you could clearly see her loading up to chase the cow and it’s always the same with chickens there’s a 2-3 second gap where he could of prevented the chase.

    Use a chute pen, one with a return, so you can release either to the lane, or back into the barn. One at a time, exclude the ones you do not want and separate out! That is how we did it.

    • @openhorizon1162
      @openhorizon1162 Před měsícem +2

      And maybe use temporary electric fences in the pen by the barn, to herd the final reluctant ones into the chute. That is, to progressively shrink the area outside the chute they can escape back into.

    I read a great book on gardening that advised on the importance of taking time to "lean on your hoe" - just slowing down and being keenly observant of your garden. I imagine it's no different for a livestock farmer - gotta spend time just being there and watching the fellas, you'll learn so much.

    Morgan just with Abbey, she gives you clues every single time she’s about to chase something.. look at her ears and eyes, she was locked in on that cow before chasing it. If you get her in that 2-3 second window you will have her bad habits gone. (And would have so long ago) I guess dog people just see it that bit sooner.

    @colinmurphy8222 Před měsícem +4

    Morgan I've noticed that when laying water lines you seem to be unwinding it from the side which gives it those loopy segments that you see at 8:38. I'm not experienced with running water lines, but I've pulled a lot of cable in various jobs. I think you're probably making this harder than it needs to be and you're introducing kinks to the water lines that will shorten their lifespan.
    Maybe instead you should try pulling the hose like we pull data cables. Pull from the end and let the spool spin to unwind itself. You could try putting a metal pole through the spool of hose, lifting the spool with your tractor then pulling the hose to where you want it. Hope this helps!

I think they were just in dirty circumstances. Next year hopefully you won't have the same problem. I 😘 ve when you say "Fresh Grass, Fresh Grass.". The cows remembered and the babies are smart. They already know what that means. The pastures look beautiful. I was enjoying the Bliss, too. Happy Spring!!! Be Happy. You've done good work... 🐮🐽🐷🐕🐩🐈🐈‍⬛🐄🐂🐄🐔🐓🐤🦆🦢
