Early morning on Thanksgiving day.
Just by moving a little bit, the cold air that came in through the gaps in the quilt made you shiver all over.
Although it is true that sleepiness has been driven away, the desire to get up has not increased at all, and has even decreased.
With the thought "I won't get up so soon anyway", I swiped away my phone and browsed the Arima Memorial voting-related topics on the social platform while imagining this morning's work schedule in my mind.
Mejiro Farm The last large-scale adjustment of the horse herd before winter officially begins.
Although in previous years the simple approach of "let the mothers stay together" was adopted, with the increase in breeding mares in Nishiken Farm, we had to start thinking about more detailed groupings.
To put it simply, mothers who are separated due to reasons such as weaning period are regrouped according to their respective expected dates of delivery and breeding plans, and based on this, Horse Stall is moved.
Although it is only a transfer within Nishiken Farm, according to the experience shared by Mr. Ogawa, even if two carriages operate at the same time, it will probably take more than three times of loading and unloading each, and it will take about an hour.
Although it seems a bit close to the problems found in math exercise books, this time the grouping took into account the compatibility of mothers to each other as much as possible rather than simple efficiency or veterinary rationality.
However, if the due dates are too far apart, it will be difficult to arrange them together. In addition, this is the first time that this has actually happened.
question, so it's a bit nerve-wracking.
Of course, there will be new encounters in new groups, and sometimes you may see scenes like "I didn't expect them to be so close" Matoba.
The so-called one period and one session.
And just when I was thinking about all these things, the screen next to me that was gradually extinguishing because the sliding stopped suddenly lit up.
A noisy electronic sound that urges you to wake up.
I lifted the quilt in one breath, changed my clothes and came to the lounge. I saw Mr. Deputy Stable Manager lazily clicking on his mobile phone as usual and standing in front of the coffee machine waiting.
"Oh! It turns out that if you press it more, it will be cold brew. It's so awesome."
With an exaggerated tone like Columbus who discovered the New World, Zepp turned his head halfway and talked about his new discovery.
However, that's not something that's in the manual.
Despite this, Mr. Deputy Stable Manager was still sharing with everyone the new functions he had discovered from the second-generation coffee machine that had been used for more than half a year until the work started in the morning.
Speaking of this curiosity, I am afraid that only the little ones who were just moved to the new grazing land yesterday can compare with him.
Comparable.
In the Training stage, as long as Nishiken Farm conditions permit, most horse breeders will try to change the grazing land of yearlings and yearlings at appropriate frequencies - it is said that it can provide freshness through changes in the environment, thereby promoting the movement and exercise of foals.
Whether it was Viserys who was very reluctant at first, or Xiban who like her mother didn't like to move much except for mud baths on the grazing land, the three little guys became more active after changing the grazing land - although it also made Gozen-sensei more worried.
As soon as Jiping entered the new grazing land, he exclaimed "It's so spacious" and started running freely.
Although it happened yesterday, when Miura danced and imitated Gozen-sensei's anxious look as he followed the three little guys, seemingly shouting "Run slower, be careful not to fall," a burst of laughter broke out among the members.
"But if you play so excitedly, you will probably be very tired."
"And the horse clothes will get dirty too!"
Rachel Ho turned to look like she was about to cry without tears.
"It's time to go home"
After shouting this, I found that the little guys coming out one after another from Windbreak Shelter all looked extremely excited.
In contrast to the guys who played a little too much, including Gozen-sensei, Mr. Viserys is still waiting obediently in Windbreak Shelter.
It wasn't until Rachel Ho stuck her head into Windbreak Shelter and shouted "It's time to go home, Viserys" that he came out of the shed leisurely.
"As expected of Viserys, he really understands. Mr. Deputy Stable Manager, who was holding Mr. William on his shoulder, suddenly spoke from the other side of the fence, almost startling everyone.
However, Viserys still stopped and waited until Mr. William climbed over the fence and jumped on his back, then snorted at his companion walking in front.
Humph! Only a fool would freeze outside in vain with thoughts like this clearly written on his face.
However, Mr. Viserys over there, judging from the monitored data, your amount of exercise is not low.
With this thought in mind, he reached out and touched Viserys's head.
As a result, although Xiban looked very sleepy, he looked over with a pitiful expression and stomped his hooves as if he was complaining, "I want it too."
On the grazing land, the young ones are sometimes brushed outdoors in the open air.
When the weather is getting colder, this can not only massage the skin, but also enhance communication with people, so occasionally after grazing,
Then brush them by the way.
"Okay, okay, Xiban will be here first today."
So I let go of Viserys and started brushing Xiban's hair.
After it was over, Xiban, who looked satisfied, jumped up and ran to drink water.
It's a bit strange to say that as soon as one of the horses starts drinking water, for some reason the little guys will temporarily put down what they are doing and come together to drink.
Everyone gathered the buckets in a circle like "horse dumplings", and each face squeezed in through the gaps to drink. Of course, because there were only three heads, even the child Liban, who looked very thirsty, did not drink too quickly.
Although in comparison, it seems that the person responsible for brushing is thirstier.
A little later, when all the members were busy adjusting Horse Stall around the carriage.
Speaking of this incident that happened in the pasture land, Zepp said, "Dawn-kun also liked brushing at that time."
The one who I remember most liking "refreshing" is definitely Dawn-kun, who was still called Moon Radiance at that time.
As soon as the first round of brushing is finished, the child will run up to me and say, "Please brush again," and come close to me.
Once you're stuck with that kid, don't think about doing anything else until he's satisfied.
I really couldn't stand it anymore. At that time, I heard similar complaints from many members.
It is said that after reaching Stables, the child did not change his habit of being brushed.
However, everyone from the stable attendants to Uchida masters and Uchida Stable seems to like this kind of interaction.
That child who was acting coquettishly behind everyone, it was time for him to stand on the stage of generation in a blink of an eye.
I'm really looking forward to next month's Hopeful Stakes.
The star of today's Thanksgiving dinner is the seven-sided bird that Zepp and Ravide jointly brought out from the oven.
Because the trend in society these days is health, and the seven-faced bird happens to have less fat than ordinary chicken, so the chances of seeing it should also increase.
The seven-faced bird is quite big, and the simple steps of taking it out of the oven and placing it smoothly on the table took a lot of effort from the two of them, and everyone watching on the sidelines was also a little worried.
However, as the turkey was cut and the LED lights hung up to create an atmosphere began to flash, everyone still had a smile on their faces.
