Feeding Time
Feeding time on High Mountain Farm is at exactly 4:00pm ET. No, our animals don't have a battery operated watch but their internal timing circuits work without any external aid. They gather at the fence about 20 minutes early and patiently wait for someone to bring FOOD.
Remember to give your animals extra food during cold weather. I pour any left over grease into their food to add fat and scrape all leftovers into their bucket.
As you can see, it's snowing again and the temperature has fallen to 27F but the ol' wood heater is cranked up and the house is a toasty 75F.
