Gator loaded up and ready to start feeding. Hay, check. Grain, check. Soaked hay, check.
Outside cats fed. This is before the donkey and horses are fed. 
AJ's hay being soaked to get rid of as much sugar and starch as possible from the hay. Horses that have/had laminitis need a diet low in starch and sugar. About fifteen minutes for the hay to soak.
While the hay is soaking we need to say good morning to the chickens and let them out. 
Chickens fed and watered. Honey Dog always accompanies on the morning feedings.
We need to go get the older chickens away from the neighbors fence and shoo them back towards the barn. It amazes me how quickly they can get across the property when they want to.
Pics are a bit out of line. We have already started feeding and are out in the back pasture. Goats have to get their grain.
Donkeys are beginning to get their breakfast. This is just the first of three piles of hay.
Pearl and Mr. M. Mallow waiting patiently for their breakfast.
Sorry , this is a duplicate of the first pic.
Time to drive over to where Arnold, Cookie and Doughnut are and give them their breakfast. 
All the donkeys in the back pasture content and munching away. 
Mr. Egyptian Goose over from next door for a bite to eat. 
Now we have to drive to the stall area where the horses are and feed them. 
Everyone now has their breakfast. Time to go back into the house and feed the inside cats and get another cup of coffee.
Feeding usually takes about half an hour sometimes longer.
In a couple of hours it is time to let the horses out, clean and check all the waterers, and start mucking stalls.
Until next time........................
