i wonder.... if the little stud donkey would llike to live with the cowboy's mare--geometry being what it is, he could not possible impregnant her...anm maybe teh pony mare- tho she could go either place... that would leave me with 2 groups and teh biggest group with taxi, would have the on front stall- with 2 exits... this wouold improve teh ability of teh donks to get in there when she is there.. sometimes mares do not get along well but all that is worth a try... the 2 exits make it critical not only for teh quick exit, but watch pockets sneak in the "other door"
and... just becaus taxi would be teh biggest means nothing if you put out one dish of oats.. i have seen the smallest donkey keep an herd of cows away from one bucket of grain... this is why those nosebags are so valuable... each animal gets thier own. we may have to resort to those nosebags...or the goats would get it all.. goats like banging heads to chase anyone from grain... hitting heads is normal for goats. they like it !!! must be careful there--- if you hit a goat in the heat, they immediately turn you r way and say "you wann a play". and offer to hit you with their head-- and thiers has horns- or at least stubbs of horns which they delight in banging into each oterh.

anotehr hot day---no tqxi ride today-- besides i don't have all the sddle pieces yet...

now construction---
allow me to tell you -some of the things i do not know about pipes--the biggest thing is measurement....id and od.... not too excitintg-- inside dimention or outside dimention.
fencing pipe------.currently i am putting in some fencing-- and the pipes involvd are 1.3" outside and sualed on one end so each pipe has a 6" section oon. one end where od to fit in the id of teh rest of teh p pipe, making nice neat long pipe these are also called 1 3/8"
this pipe looks like teh stuff in th e electrical depqrtment. which comes in 1".. 3/4"...1/2" and doesn't fit the other pipe that looks like it...
all of these metal pipes can be easily cut with a tiny. hand held gismo made by "rigid".
---
this concept is also true ur in th pvc department.. the white pvc... comes in 1 1/2----2----..3----.4.all fit inside each other-- and have special pieces for making other things like furnature or dog beds... the problem here is------it comes in schedule 40 and schedule. 80 which have to do with water pressure-- and teh outside dimention of th pipes is the same. you can really get screwed up mixing schedules and furnature fittings.becaause of the inside dimention.... in the plastic pipe department you iwll also fine stuff for central vacuum cleaners which does not match anything anyway,
iron pipe. behaves pretty well fitting inside each other-- and if you are making a see saw-- this is ideal-- cute thing here is -- if you are reusing some iron pipe tht someone is replacing... it often comes in 21 foot legnths..i dunno why....
------
so fencing today is top rail-- until it gets too hot.. which may be before i even get started..
