#173 -Our farm ain't anything like FARMVILLE!

Now that Teddy and the four cows are sharing all the paddocks together I'm seeing a side of mongrel  in Teddy. Most of the time they all just go about their business being cows and a horse, grazing, pooing, mooing, neighing etc. But then Teddy must get bored and something takes hold of him and he goes, "Right! Those cows look like they need rounding up!" and off he goes at a gallop towards them and the poor cows get the life scared out of them and scatter.

Then it will be all back to normal and an hour or so later Teddy will go over to the hay roll and claim it for himself. If the cows go to the other hay roll he will go over and start pulling hay out of it and shake his head letting hay fly everywhere. He doesn't actually eat it but he makes a mess and the cows back off and will stop eating it. Then the next time I watch them they are all happily eating from the same place together without a care in the world. The other night I even saw Teddy and Gunny eating, side by side for ages, almost touching each other.

Then this morning I was watching them from the study and the cows were hanging around the left overs from an old hay roll. Teddy waltzed over and stood on top of the hay, took a wee on it and then waltzed away. I've never seen a horse do that! How bloody rude!  Was that a horse marking it's territory? It's more likely Teddy is just a mongrel.

Before I bought this property I used to play Farmville all the time. That game is just a big lie hehehe!
