re: #165 calochortus
Sure, I’d be happy to try hammering nails into the hoof of a 1000 lb animal for minimum wage. Preferably without any medical coverage.
I have a friend who is a blacksmith and the only horseshoe guy in the region. I remember back in the late 90s when he got kicked in the knee. No insurance. It wasn’t pretty.
He’s anxiously waiting for the insurance exchanges to start up (which won’t be too long now here in Kentucky).
