Page 76 2025 Animal Stories Lincoln Daily News February 2025 Barnyard Buddies A pair of buddies win the Barnyard Buddies category This year, Lincoln Daily News added a new category for the 2025 Animal Stories Pet Contest. We asked readers to submit photos of their Barnyard Buddies, opening it up to any pet that lives outside. The winner of this category was Jeidyn Ewin with her horse Vegas. Judges loved this photo and voted it as the best of the best in the category. They said that they saw a few different winning attributes, first being it is a wonderfully beautiful photo. Secondly they liked the composition that included Vegas and his barnyard buddy Remi. Obviously, it would have been a bit difficult to bring Vegas into the shopping area at Lincoln Farm and Home, so Jeidyn brought the next best thing, Vegas’ friend Remi. Jeidyn says that she has had Vegas and Remi for two years, and the two are the best of friends all the time. Jeidyn, Vegas and Remi received a $50 gift card from farm and home and a swag bag from Lincoln Daily News. Asked what she was going to do with her $50 gift card, she said she saw some chickens in her future, and who knows maybe someday they will be an entry in the Animal Stories Barnyard Buddies category. Pictured from the left are Karen Castelein with Lincoln Daily News, Peyton, Jeidyn and Remi, and Anita Pyle with Farm and Home.
