  1. Our Cows

    Share Share Post
    The farmers have different kinds of stocks, horses, cows, heifers, bullocks, calves, sheep and pigs. The people have names for their horses and cows. The name of our horses are, Fanny, Sandy and Charley. The name of our cows are Polly, Neylon, Connell, Milking strain, Daisy, Red Limerick, Grey Limerick, Inagh, Cocked Horns, Young Heifer and magpie. We stall some of them and tie the rest of them with chains. They buy the chains in Ennis and the smith makes the swivel. The food we give the horses is, mangolds, hay, oats and turnips.
