Good evening Zach, May will be fine with a bit of a rest,don't go fretting she'll be ok.As for June l was smiling from start to finish....she is amazing truly she is.Tell me Zach do you get harsh winters with lots of snow! We never see the snow maybe once in ten years,l love to see it myself.Up in Yorkshire where l worked a lot with the horses the winters are brutally cold and so much snow,but living down south it so much warmer, which is great for growing lots of my own vegetables.Thankyou for sharing till next time dear friend ❤
Thank you Ms Joyce! We will usually get snow 2-3 times during the colder winter months. It’s usually not to bad tho. We’re in the “middle” zone really, so winters aren’t too bad. We have a happy balance of both. Thanks for your kind words as always and thanks for always taking time to watch and comment. I appreciate it. Take care and do come again, please!
Thanks a bunch! I am glad you found it helpful my friend. Thx for taking time to watch and comment as always Mr Bobby. Take care and do come again, please.
Thanks a bunch and I try to do right by them my friend! Not only do they work for me, but I truly love them. They’re my friends. And I’m always glad to see them. I take a lot of pride in my mules no doubt. Anyway, thank you for such kind words. Take care and do come again, please
I am glad you are enjoying the channel my friend. I will do my best to keep at it. Thank you for taking time to watch and comment. Take care and do come again, please.
Love watching you work your mules. The wind is not that bad. I know others may notice but I don't. I've said this before but June is probably my favorite. She has come such a long way. I will pray for you and your churches revival that someone will hear and obey. God bless you my brother
Ty sir, that means a lot to me. I really appreciate your prayers!! And thank you for the kind encouraging words as always. Thx for taking time to watch and comment. Take care my friend and do come again please.
Haha, yessir maybe. She’s def special. She’s been a handful at times. But she’s really settled into being a good work mule. She’s friendly in her own way, but she’s not like May is. May is a total pet no doubt. And loves people. June is different. But that’s ok with me. She sure works nice! Thank you for the kind words my friend and thank you for taking time to watch and comment. I appreciate it. Take care and do come again, please
@zachodom7486 well, you want a great helper after all -- not a great pet. I've always been fond of the ones that put up a fight at first. Once they see that you're not going to take the opportunity to mistreat them, then they jump all-in to your arms. Just the way I like it 😁
For some reason, I've always been a little partial towards June. Maybe it's because she was a little more spirited than May. I guess maybe I just like a little ornery. lol Another interesting and informative video. Thank you
Thanks for the kind words. June is a special one to me also. She’s kinda been my project lol. I knew early on she was smart. She’ll just try ya if she thinks she can get away with it. Thanks for taking time to watch and comment my friend. I appreciate your dedication to my channel. Take care my friend and do come again, please
Sure appreciate your depth of knowledge Zach. To keep May in the game could you put her thru the same exercises driving her with no load... just walking with the harness? Keep the videos coming!! Also, sure enjoy the Proverbs you've been sharing! dale t
Yessir, to some extent I can ground drive her. However, imho that doesn’t do them a whole lot of good. And if they get to walking to fast and whatnot because of no load, then there’s nothing I can do but quit on her. So, that’s why usually I just wait till they’re ready to work again before I do anything. Thank you sir for your kind words and thanks a whole lot for taking time to watch and comment. I appreciate it! Take care and do come again, please.
Dear Zach thank you for letting me see everything there, i hope she can feel better and develop that muscle again, and make sure you get your rest too and good meals so you will stay strong through the winter God bless you all there and the animals too ill be praying for you and im sorry she has thst ailment, take care my friend
Thank you sir! I surely appreciate it. I believe everything will be fine with a little time. It’s unfortunate, but it will be ok. Thank you for the super kind words my friend. Take care and do come again, please
Thank you Zach for being so considered of your animal. A lot of people would’ve kept working her and not even considered the pain she might be in so I say again thank you for being so considerate and I’ll keep watching. I love your videos.
Thank you, my friend! My animals mean the world to me. And they are also part of the way I make my living. So it is in my best interest to take care of them no doubt. This particular injury is not really a pain type of injury for the most part. So, she is doing pretty good. And not in any kind of pain. It will just take a little time to heal… Anyway, thank you so much for the kind words and thank you for taking time to watch and comment. I do appreciate it! Take care and do come again, please.
Thank you sir. I’m getting her a nice new full faced “no choke” pulling collar. With an extra thick pad. I’m thinking that will greatly help her once she’s better. Time will heal..thanks for the kind words my friend and thanks for taking time to watch and comment. Take care and do come again, please!
Thanks my friend and I'm glad you found it helpful! That makes it worth doing. Thank you for taking time to watch and comment. I sure appreciate it. Take care and do come again, please
Thanks for sharing the video Zach. I'm sure sorry about May. Hope she heals quickly and soundly. June is doing good. She sure settled down and is becoming a good working mule. You said you were going to stick with her and it is paying off. Like your sign in the front of the house by the way. Good to see how things are turning out there concerning the country. Thanks for sharing the differences in the collars. Yes I can see why you are going to change them. Makes sense to me. Y'all have a beautiful place. Really like Marcy's flowers around your house. God Bless Y'all. Stay safe out there working.
Thank you my friend! I surely appreciate it. Yessir, I believe May will heal just fine in time and the newer pulling collars will provide more protection for her shoulders when she’s ready to go back. I’m a little bummed about it, but it is what it is. I hope with things headed the way they are now, maybe..just maybe the country can sort of get back on its feet. Maybe folks will be peaceable about all of it no matter which side they’re on. Anyway, Thanks for taking time to watch and comment my friend and thanks for your dedication to my channel. Take care and do come again, please.
Mr. Zach, This is Jimmy. I will be praying for May to get healed and be good as new again. And praying for June as well. I was telling my wife Mrs PIB that they are really just babies or young children. Congratulations on almost reaching 10,000. That's a blessing! I've been trying to achieve that goal this year as well, but I don't think that it will happen for me this year. Maybe next year. The Lord has a plan and it's not my time yet! Lol. I am so blessed that we found your channel! God bless you and your family always!
Thank you Mr Jimmy! I do appreciate the prayers for me and the mules..as well as the kind words my friend. I surely appreciate it. I hope you reach your goals to my friend. I’ll have to check your channel out. Tbh, I haven’t even thought of that. I’ll take a look. Thank you for your always encouraging words my friend. Take care and do come again, please
@@primeredisbestthank you sir! That’s probably the kindest compliment I’ve ever gotten. I always hope I can be that. After all, without Jesus..I am NOTHING. Thanks my friend for your encouragement and I am sure God will bless your channel just the same for giving him credit and spreading his word. Drive on my friend! 🙌🏻
Great video. I learned a bunch about collars, thanks for the lesson. The light wasn't bad but a little shadowy when you were going toward the evening sun. I'm sure it messed with the light meters in your camera. You're doing a great job with June, I look forward to seeing her in the woods. All of them for that matter, especially May. Thanks for the prayers, God bless you and your family. Two legged and four. -Clay from N.E. Alabama

Thanks Mr Dan! Glad to hear from you my friend and I hope you are well. Thanks for taking time to watch and comment. Take care and do come again, please.
May is still a baby, really, and still has some growing to do. I'm sure collars will fit her a bit better once she's filled out a bit more. Those weeks off may help with that as well as allowing her shoulder to heal.. As for June, she really has come along nicely. I'm wondering if she needed the additional routine of breaking in to help settle her down and learn to trust humans a little bit more. Looking at her, she seems to be more physically advanced than May, and was definitely ready for it. They'll both get there eventually.
Yes, as she gets older, she will start to bloom out a lot more. And that will help a lot. I still don’t know for 100% sure what happened to her. Because if it was an ill fitted collar, causing a problem… It would have done it the first two or three days I worked her. However, it could be the fact that she just lost some weight and then it started to pinch a little bit simply because there was not enough meat there to provide cushion. But, I’m going to do everything I can to remedy that. I am giving her some supplements now to help her fill out better, and also getting her a different color and pad. That should help a lot! In the meantime… I will just allow her time off to heal. She is not in any kind of pain at all, so that is good. Anyway, thank you for the kind words and thank you for taking time to watch and comment. I do appreciate it. Take care and do come again, please
I had no problem understanding your audio even with the wind. You have a sharp eye to catch May’s shoulder issue. Have you consider putting her in a driving harness without a collar so she could have a 42:03 single load ? Thank you for sharing.🐴🐴
Thank you sir for the feedback. I do watch my animals closely. Although I feel I should’ve watched even closer. But sometimes, it just works out this way sadly. But time will heal. Anyway, no I won’t try and work her no other way. I’ll just give her the time she needs to heal and then come back to her. I feel like she’ll fall right back in. She’s really smart. We’ve gotta get back to cutting timber and won’t have a lot of time to mess around much. And ground driving them is ok, but they don’t learn much doing that. So, I’ll just wait till she’s ready to work again, and we will knock the rust off and go to work. June will be really steady by then and will help her even more too. And it may give her time to mature a little more also. Anyway, thank you sir for the suggestion and also taking time to watch and comment. I do appreciate it! Take care my friend and do come again, please
Zach I am so sorry about May I hope she gets better I know she will I know you are busy I am glad Trump won I love your hat when you get time call God Bless And Be safe Be Careful Praying for me thank you your friend Billy I hope you get 10,000 Bye Now
Hey Billy! Good to hear from you buddy. Thanks for watching and commenting my friend. I’ll try and call ya soon as I can. Take care of yourself and do come again, please
That was good information. I had a pair of full face collars I used with my little Mountain Saddle Horses, and they always worked really well. Someone stole those collars, and all I could get to replace them was half sweeneys. Fortunately, they never got sore from them, but I wasn't working them as much then either. At that point, they were pulling carriages more than doing chores. I guess it was just dumb luck, because I'd never heard it explained this well. You can still ground drive May, even if you can't hook her, can't you? I'm wondering if this rig would work for her, so you could keep her learning while she is healing? th-cam.com/video/FMgfAtSGBf4/w-d-xo.html You might not want it for logging, but if she could still pull the cart and keep learning it might be useful. The line of draft is completely different, so it wouldn't put pressure on the same areas. A lot of horses and mules, back in the day, this is the only kind of work they did. If you were poor, you might only have the one horse or mule. Folks would have a little one horse sled to take to a coal bank and get lumps of coal for heat, or into the woods to cut a little firewood. They would use a rastus plow and a single horse or mule to plow out the garden and the tobacco. They would pick corn into that little sled to put it in the corn crib. You did what you had to do.
Yes ma’am, folks back then had to do what they had to do to make it work. People and animals both suffered at times. To some extent I can ground drive her. However, imho that doesn’t do them a whole lot of good. And if they get to walking to fast and whatnot because of no load, then there’s nothing I can do but quit on her. So, that’s why usually I just wait till they’re ready to work again before I do anything. The best thing right now is to just let her have time off and gain more weight. Put some flesh back on and some to spare. Thank you ma’am for your kind words and thanks a whole lot for taking time to watch and comment. I appreciate it! Take care and do come again, please.
Yessir, it just depends on the animal. You gotta get it just right when you’re really working them, or you can sore em. And cause probs. I can’t say the collar did or didn’t. Idk for sure. I sorta think it is a combo of things. I am thinking if it was the collar alone, it would’ve done it the first few days of working her. I’ve put a little over 30 days on her before it became a problem. So with that, I’m always cautious on this sorta thing..and even then I still get it wrong sometimes. I think the pulling collars will help a lot and be more forgiving in this aspect. Anyway, thanks for taking time to watch and comment my friend as always! And thanks for wishes on church meeting! Take care and do come again, please
Yessir, it’s been around a while. Broke several teams with it lol. Thanks for taking time to watch and comment my friend. Been thinking of you and your family brother. Hope you all are well. Take care and do come again, please
He is doing good. He’s still working in town at the tractor place and going to school. So all is well. Thanks for asking and thanks for taking time to watch and comment. Take care and do come again, please.
Well, I could..however if she starts getting to fast there would be nothing I could do about it other than fight her with the lines and that don’t work to good for the way I like mine broke. I break em with weight, not holding their mouth. So I’ve found over the years, just to wait and let them get well enough to actually work. Line driving doesn’t help them a whole lot. They need experience pulling and stopping loads. If that makes sense

The line of draft is completely different, so it wouldn't put pressure on the same areas. A lot of horses and mules, back in the day, this is the only kind of work they did. If you were poor, you might only have the one horse or mule. Folks would have a little one horse sled to take to a coal bank and get lumps of coal for heat, or into the woods to cut a little firewood. They would use a rastus plow and a single horse or mule to plow out the garden and the tobacco. They would pick corn into that little sled to put it in the corn crib. You did what you had to do.
Yes ma’am, folks back then had to do what they had to do to make it work. People and animals both suffered at times. To some extent I can ground drive her. However, imho that doesn’t do them a whole lot of good. And if they get to walking to fast and whatnot because of no load, then there’s nothing I can do but quit on her. So, that’s why usually I just wait till they’re ready to work again before I do anything. The best thing right now is to just let her have time off and gain more weight. Put some flesh back on and some to spare. Thank you ma’am for your kind words and thanks a whole lot for taking time to watch and comment. I appreciate it! Take care and do come again, please.
We never did like a half or full Sweeny on anything
Hope yall have a good meeting at church
Yessir, it just depends on the animal. You gotta get it just right when you’re really working them, or you can sore em. And cause probs. I can’t say the collar did or didn’t. Idk for sure. I sorta think it is a combo of things. I am thinking if it was the collar alone, it would’ve done it the first few days of working her. I’ve put a little over 30 days on her before it became a problem. So with that, I’m always cautious on this sorta thing..and even then I still get it wrong sometimes. I think the pulling collars will help a lot and be more forgiving in this aspect. Anyway, thanks for taking time to watch and comment my friend as always! And thanks for wishes on church meeting! Take care and do come again, please

You're right, gotta protect those shoulders! Thanks for taking time to watch and comment my friend. Take care buddy, and do come again..please

How is skyard doing
I think he told you in previous emails and videos
He is doing good. He’s still working in town at the tractor place and going to school. So all is well. Thanks for asking and thanks for taking time to watch and comment. Take care and do come again, please.
It was a different fella.
can u line drive Mae
Well, I could..however if she starts getting to fast there would be nothing I could do about it other than fight her with the lines and that don’t work to good for the way I like mine broke. I break em with weight, not holding their mouth. So I’ve found over the years, just to wait and let them get well enough to actually work. Line driving doesn’t help them a whole lot. They need experience pulling and stopping loads. If that makes sense
