Deworming
So Lil Boy and Jett are beginning to eat the dandelions and bedstraw, I may not have to train them to it after all! I did discover that what I thought was rag weed is in fact buttercup, will be watching that one very closely. In other news, I finally weighed Lil Boy and Jett (not fun, must get the formula instead of the scale for next time) and Lil Boy weighs in at 85-90 lbs! Jett is at about 40 lbs. I gave them both their first dose of dewormer today, and I was surprised at how well behaved they were. I was also surprised at the price, $44 for a bottle of wormer, yeesh. Lets hope it works, Lil Boy looks thin and I blame worms, if he stays thin, I may have to start giving him some supplemental feed. We shall see!

You're off to a fine start! How about doing a couple of plot surveys? When you're comfortable doing species ID, count everything within a square meter--and then maybe run the numbers in a couple of different diversity indices? You could flag the plots to be indexed again after a second round of grazing later this summer...?
