and WILEY BIT ME!
So instead of annoying Randy, I made him really angry by doing something so stupid and getting hurt ~ and dammit I DO know better...
So now I have my own personal example of why jacks do not make good pets :(
Not that things will change around here because they DO have a job as breeding jacks... but you can bet I will NOT be that stupid again!
It caught me by surprise and man did it hurt!
And yeah I am thanking God that Wiley has grass-eating teeth and not meat-eating teeth!!
Ok, this was my "punishment", to admit to all of you that I should have known better and asked for help... but hey if it saves someone else from a bite then it was worth the embarrassment. If my leg didn't hurt so bad I would be kicking myself, I really DO know better!!! And silly me in the back of my mind I am so grateful that it was not DILLON that got me because he is my favorite and that would have broke my heart!
Even on the injured list I helped with the trailer...
This weekend is the big push to get the trailer rolling again as we are supposed to leave Thursday morning for Mormon Lake...
I haven't posted any pictures of the small cleanup work as it wouldn't show much, but we have been grinding and sanding and painting all week... and now we are ready to start fitting and installing the new walls.
right rear section, inside and out
left rear section, inside and out
inside and outside of the bottom left front section
inside (Randy tapping into place) and outside of the top left front section
I feel a lot better now... but we still have the right front section including a door to build, and the dividing wall INSIDE the trailer, before we can put the floor back in.

Oh! my..... been there done that, except mine was a standard jack & my thigh was the target. I discovered colors I didn't know existed & it took forever to heal. Don't you just love it, when you do something like that, when you know you shouldn't.......!!!! And of course there are probably plenty of people around to also tell you, stupid, stupid, stupid...!! At least he left the skin intact.... (G)
Oh that looks painful! I don't know much about jack donkeys, but I do know stallions, and anything that even resembles thinking about biting is "nipped" in the bud; I let him think he's going to die if he even thinks about biting.
Good heavens!!! That's a heck of a bite!! Dang girl!!
Love how the trailer is looking. Y'all have been busy!! Can't wait to see it when it's all done :)
well like i said Shirley, it was my fault and i knew better... trying to get between two fighting jacks alone was downright STUPID! as was trying to fix the pen on my own without tying them up... ordinarily they are both the sweetest things and i have never had an issue... it's only when they get together that there is a problem. he DID get reprimanded though!!!
